fcajump 164 #1 March 12, 2017 I remember seeing a documentary on the most jumpers on the outside of an aircraft... recollection it was the Junkers version of a Ford Trimotor. But I can't find ANY reference to it on the web. Would like to watch the video again, but can't find it... Anyone here have any leads for me on this search?

obelixtim 150 #2 March 12, 2017 That twin beech in Skies Call, with all the jumpers outside must have been close to a record.My computer beat me at chess, It was no match for me at kickboxing.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fcajump 164 #3 March 13, 2017 obelixtim That twin beech in Skies Call, with all the jumpers outside must have been close to a record. At the time, yea... I'm guessing its what inspired them to call out the tri-motor. Recollection is that it was almost twice that number though... JWAlways remember that some clouds are harder than others...

accumack 14 #4 March 13, 2017 Wasn't it Martin Cadin's(spelling) Junkers? I think there was a story in Parachutist about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pchapman 279 #6 March 13, 2017 The Parachutist story is in this Howard White post: http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=2944217#2944217 A photo of the jumpers on the Ju-52 is in the first post of his thread. I assume that it is the record but didn't check the details of the thread. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
