LyraM45 0 #28 September 20, 2009 QuoteQuoteI could have sworn when the two CASAs were flying at Skyfest at Skydive Carolina in '08 that the loads were 34 people. And that was WITH the FAA getting on board & counting seatbelts. I thought that was a normal load, maybe I was mistaken. Skydive Carolina does have a large runway though, perhaps that factored in. Fayard put 34 peeps per load on our 3300' runway. It's a shame I am about to leave work for my four day break, but if I were on shift for another hour I would run a runway analysis using Casa specs at this airport for max occupancy .... just for shits and giggles to see the numbers, but I am pretty sure 3000+ feet of pavement at max fuel / payload is more than enough space for that aircraft to operate.Apologies for the spelling (and grammar).... I got a B.S, not a B.A. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
