I've been on a few King Air loads of 15 skydivers, which had one jumper standing in the middle bracing himself on the inside... :o

Super Otters carry 23, even when they went to high altitude for the last world record done at Eloy they held 23. I've been on CASA loads of 33. Porters with a bench on the left side and at the back typically carry 10.
People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

STWOT = 23{ SUP TW Otter}
C-47 = 40+
C-170 = 4
C-182 WB = 5
C-206 = 6
C-185 = 6
GC-208 =21
C-130 = 208
727-STR = 200=
STD B-18 = 12
L-18 w/o emer dr = 25

Feel free to change my passenger #s and add jumpships...

"The Farm's" Grand Caravan took 18 up last weekend, but only because 4 of use were getting out low. >:(

Sorry, do you mean you can 21 in a Grand Caravan? You have gots to be kidding me!:o

I agree with the higher numbers of 18 max in a Pac and 10 in a Porter with the right seating though.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

An Otter, Caravan, or other large and tall door aircraft are best for CRW exits since you can get mulitple people and vid on the outside if you're doing tight exits. We did one fourway practice round out of a PAC and decided that it was too cramped for competition jumping. For recreational CRW, anything will do, just gotta be ready for a harder opening on the fast planes.

Edit: Also, regardless of jumprun speed, exits out of tailgate aircraft are the funnest.

For Wendy and people of similar height, a PAC door is just right. :D:D

727=189 tops
C 130 =180
in my humble experience
gear, length of runway and fuel as considerations
Oh yea, and those guys at the FAA and their seat belt requirements..
