Terminology: Parajumping??

Recommended Posts

So I looked up the website on the airport where I learned to skydive and still skydive. The one reference to skydiving looks like this:

Quote

- PARAJUMPING ON AND IN VICINITY OF ARPT PRIMARILY S OF RY, AVOID OVERFLIGHTS MID FIELD.



OK, so I'm not a pilot, but is this how the FAA refers to skydiving? I checked FAR parts 65 and 105, and I never see a reference to parajumping - just parachute operations and such. Is this common in aircraft literature, or maybe older terminology that's outdated?
Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD
