Where to jump near St Louis with plane bigger than a Cessna

[Lujako 0]

I am trying to find a place that has a plane bigger than a Cessna "near" St. Louis.

We want to take my wife's 86 year old grandmother.

Many thanks.

Skydive Chicago or Chicagoland Skydiving Center are the nearest full time turbine operators...about a 4 hour drive from the STL metro area.

No, no, no... That website is for one of "those" operations. No large aircraft based in the St. Louis area. pms07's advice is good.

Thank you! That is what I suspected. I do miss Quantum Leap.

Thanks for bringing this up. I am planning to go to St. Louis for a long weekend. I do have a free day for skydiving. So, I searched around and was surprised to see that there is no "big" operation in St. Louis. I guess I will have to try cessna for the first time. Which dropzone is the nearest one to St. Louis?
