skygod7777 0 #1 February 26, 2004 what's up i just got a phone call from my dzo, and an e-mail that skydive wayne county (richmond, IN) is getting an otter for the season. and if i'm not mistaken it's a -34 super otter too. i know it's a super otter, but i'm not sure about if it's just a -27 or a -34 (hey who cares, it's a fuckin super otter right!!!). well i'm stoked. i mean i really liked the caravan and all, but an otter just fuckin rocks. later Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blahr 0 #14 February 26, 2004 The Otter and Skyvan wil be returning to Cross Keys in April. Cant wait. The Caravan and Porter are super cool compared to the Cessnas I was used to before I started jumping at CK, but I cant wait to try out the even cooler planes :-) Still have 6 weeks or so to go...

Rdutch 0 #17 February 26, 2004 I might be wrong, but last I heard there was only one -34 Otter in the country, the old Yankee Kilo otter from Pahokee. I heard also they changed the lettering. If it is, its very nice Fayard Enterprises did a great job of fixing it up. Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #19 February 26, 2004 Yankee Kilo... Yeah its SUPER nice now after Paul completely rebuit it. I believe that Aerohio has a -34 Otter and both of Skydive Arizona's Otters are -34's accourding to a conversation that I had last year. I did hear a rumor floating around that Fayard Enterprises finally upgraded the last of their -20 Otters to -27 Otters this winter. I hope its true...
