This aircraft is currently set up for skydiving operations and was flying daily up to December 09 when we bought a larger aircraft to double our capacity. We were doing jump runs to 14,000 MSL with total jump run times between 25 and 30 minutes. These aircraft are very efficient skydiving aircraft and can increase your profits substantially. Look at some of the figures below (p2). All the original equipment is there in order reconfigure it for standard passenger operations (there is also a sea plane kit (no floats)) if desired by new owner. We have recently bought a larger aircraft to cater for an increase in business. Asking Price: A$188,000 + GST if applicable.

FIGURES
The installation of the engine conversion make this aircraft one of the world’s most cost effective piston engine powered skydiving aircraft presently available. The chart below shows the flight time per load for the standard C-206 and the Skydive ST350HP 206.

The above figures were reported to us by a drop zone operating the same early model U206 before and after the engine conversion. The Skydive ST350HP can do the same load in 1/2 the time. This means that the standard C-206 will do 1.5 loads per flight hour and the Skydive ST350HP 206 will do 3 loads per flight hour. Double the loads in the same amount of time! More loads per flight hour means less cost per load and more loads per day. This equates to a higher direct net profit for your drop zone.
Another plus is that the ST350HP will give you the option to do high altitude jumps, something that a standard 206 just can't do.
