Interesting visitor to the airfield Wednesday the 8th
was this USA registered Cessna Caravan
The turbine engine C208 is for the skydive market, making it two that will be operating out of the Toogoolawah Drop zone only a few miles north west of Archerfield

A few years ago the parachute industry relied on Cessna C182 type aircraft to carry 5 jumpers aloft
Nowadays it's around the 18 mark with the C208 climbing twice as fast and twice as high (almost) than the aircraft previously used for these operations
