  • when i read the tittle i thought the video would be porn.

  • holy prop sync man!!

  • ok that dive was sick as all hell

  • Music to my ears!

  • how hard is it to get into a twotter over there? i got 1300 hrs and 400 SE turbine and 800 drop

  • @emohunterCHCH Search Transport Canada and you should be able to find the requirements on their website. I know you cannot start too old, as it takes a while. However, if you are rated in US, you may have reciprocity in some form...or some proof of proficiency.

  • @BushWomanOtter I have an NZ CAA Commercial licence issued in 2005 and im 23. I dont have an FAA licence. the NZ CAA licence is alot more difficult to obtain and highy regarded as compared to an FAA licence.

  • @emohunterCHCH I would say given your flying conditions that your requirements are a lot more stringent. Present your credentials to Transport Canada for review. You might also do the same w/FAA as well. Having a commercial lisence is a plus for you. If I remember correctly, you would be already qualified on floats so, you sould be good to go. I have seen 20-somethings on floats above Lake Superior.

  • @BushWomanOtter I wouldn't let anything hold you back. One other avenue would be to apply as skilled labor for work in CA with a good company, and they may take care of the cost of your Work Visa ad credentialing...if you want to stay there, apply from within Canada, you can't leave until it is approved, @ a year. Once you have residency, you are good and will get citizenship in about 3 years.

  • Ganonoque, Ontario?

  • Yup, that's Gananoque, or Gan for short in the Thousand Islands area near Kingston. I've had the pleasure of jumping from the Twin Otter at this DZ in 2004 and 2005 and this video brings back memories. The first and last load of the day went to 17,000 feet which was even more fun!

  • cool, I live a half hour away in Brockville!

  • Atta boy Ron.

    Sweet video.. keep them coming!

  • awesome man

    i fly skydivers in a 182... but not like that!

    maybe if i do it for a few years without freezing hte engine they might let me fly an otter somewhere huh?

  • I dont think that was anything unusual. It looks liek the pilot did a steep turn so he could turn around and get back to the airport quickly. Most of the cheaper skydive operations, the pilot has to race back, kand, and get in his car and drive to pick up the jumpers.

  • but sum of the more expensive sky dive operations, the pilot has to rush back, fly a helicopter out, and winch his divers back up
