Perris Jet

So I just recently watched the Miss CA tandem jump, and the ads they put before the jump are boasting about the jet they have. When is the last time that thing flew? Is it still operational, can you still jump it?

They don't fly it anymore, not for several years now.

It flew at the WFFC - Rantoul '06. I think it might have made a couple more loads soon after that event.

People are sick and tired of being told that ordinary and decent people are fed up in this country with being sick and tired. I’m certainly not, and I’m sick and tired of being told that I am

Why not? Or is it just one of those DZ's that say "oh look what cool stuff I have" but never fly it.

The engines on the jet have a time limit by years not hours. I think Pat told me it was a 10 year inspection that costs about $150,000+ to have done. One engine is at that limit.
They are so busy in the hangar rebuilding the Skyvan right now, and keepin the Otters going, that the jet is on the bottom of the "to do" list.
The DZ runs all of it's cool stuff, Otters, Skyvans, Porter.
