Our Skydiving Aircraft

Skydive Carolina has two, super-speedy Cessna 208s. Each of these turbine skydiving airplanes can take up to 15 jumpers to altitude in just 10 to 12 minutes – and their turnaround time is quick, too. Less time on the ground, more time in the air!

Our fleet of skydiving aircraft aren’t just vehicles to get us from the ground to the sky, they’re carefully chosen and meticulously cared-for members of the Skydive Carolina team! These planes have seen it all – from proposals and milestone birthdays to the release of loved ones. They fly first time flyers right alongside world champions, and carry people who’ve come to us from just down the road and from the furthest corners of the globe.

And they don’t just transport skydivers, either! Our fleet has been instrumental in taking equipment and supplies gifted by our amazing community to folks in crisis – like those in the North Carolina mountains after Hurricane Helene.
