Facilities



back to the topTop
Located at the Homestead General Airport, we use a large modern indoor facility with plenty of room for your friends to come and be a part of the "scene". We offer an indoor air-conditioned packing area, with Certified Parachute Riggers on staff.

Our airplane is a Cessna Caravan (15 place). Our pilots are highly experienced and oversee the regular maintenance of our aircraft by FAA certified mechanics.

We use only the most advanced "State of the Art" equipment available. Both the main and reserve parachutes are "Square", known both for their reliability and soft landings. Our equipment is routinely inspected in an ongoing effort to provide you with a new and well maintained inventory. On all of our student equipment, we have installed a new mini-computer "Automatic Opener" called CYPRES. It is designed to deploy the reserve parachute if the jumper fails to pull the ripcord.
