Winter hours are mostly just Saturdays and Sundays, but we will try to accommodate other days if we can.  In 2010 we plan to jump Wednesday through Sunday starting late May depending on interest. All jumps are made from our SUPER OTTER , which flies all day long Saturdays and Sundays. 


Updated 02/07/2010 -.

MONDAY, JANUARY 18, 2010 Thanks to everyone who came out today- we flew 87 slots on 5 loads, including a few tandems and AFFs. 

We plan to jump both days this Valentine's weekend, February 13-14, 2010. We plan to jump the Otter Saturday & Sunday starting 9 AM each day on all weekend days for the foreseeable future.. I suggest you verify we are jumping as planned before driving to Orange.

JUMPSUITS IN STOCK!

Standard jumpsuits in assorted sizes and colors. If you need a new jumpsuit, ask at Student manifest to see what we have in stock. This is much easier than ordering (and waiting months for) a custom suit. $200 tax included, ready to put on and jump!

(Sorry, you can't jump it till it is paid for!)


SUPPORT SKYDIVE ORANGE! Buy a BRICK to help fund the imminent construction of our new hangar.


MANIFEST HELP WANTED weekends-  Email if you are interested. This involves signing in licensed skydivers, communicating with the pilot, fueler, checking jumpers' paperwork, and making sure the plane flies on time. All day weekends, somewhat flexible schedule. If you are good at fitting round pegs in square holes, Square pegs in round holes, and coordinating a changing schedule on an ever changing basis all day long while tending to a stream of customers, this job just might be for you!


AADs are mandatory at Skydive Orange. In fact they are mandatory at all leading Virginia and Washington DC / Maryland area skydiving places!

BEST SKYDIVING VIDEO I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME!
(22 Meg Bearly skydiver cartoon)...the link went bad! If anyone knows where this cartoon can be found, I'd like to know. Probably got in copyright troubles.

Outstanding Russian 8-Way Team Video!

And of course our Skydiving video and Skydiving Photos

WILL THE HAPPINESS NEVER CEASE??? 

All kinds of great things are happening at Skydive Orange, Virginia! 

Ah, The Skydive Orange Super Otter!


Operating Hours- There is more weekday activity in the summer. See When do I arrive? for student arrival times. Contact us and check that we will be open before you come to skydive. 

We plan to jump the Otter all day long Saturday and Sunday every weekend year round weather permitting! Weekdays, our schedule varies greatly from day to day:

WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY - by appointment in the heat of the busy summer season, when we have a full time Otter pilot available, ready to fly the Otter if there is enough interest, which can work well for progressing AFF students.  

 

Planned Weekday Jumps:


This Schedule helps LICENSED SKYDIVERS know when we plan to fly the planes for student skydivers so licensed skydivers can join us for  WEEKDAY $19 OTTER JUMPS! We mostly do weekday jumps in the summer from mid May through Thanksgiving, and just weekends at the regular price the rest of the year. Any time we can rustle up a few weekday Otter loads, $19 weekday Otter jump prices apply for experienced skydivers to 13,500ft., with.$15 low passes to 5,500ft!!!!  Check the $19 OTTER WEEKDAY JUMP  page for updates.

This schedule lets first time Tandems and repeat AFF know when we plan to jump so they can schedule their jumps on the best jump days.

NO WEEKDAY JUMPS ARE CURRENTLY PLANNED, but when we are jumping weekdays, Email or call before coming out for weekday jumps! They might be cancelled if we expect low attendance.  

- You set the schedule! Tell us when you want to skydive!-

 

We plan to jump both days this Valentine weekend, February 13-14, 2010We plan to jump the Otter Saturday & Sunday starting 9 AM each day on all weekend days for the foreseeable future.. I suggest you verify we are jumping as planned before driving to Orange.

We will probably jump weekends only until around Mid May 2010 unless there is a lot of interest in weekday jumps.

8:30 AM weekend arrival time for AFF, experienced manifest opens 9 AM weekends.
