This year we celebrate our 60-year anniversary as the very first civilian skydiving club in the Netherlands. From a single Cessna in 1965 to today’s C-208 Caravan, our 100 % volunteer community has offered thousands of people, whether chasing their first rush of freefall or fulfilling a last wish, the chance to soar above Rotterdam’s iconic harbour skyline. As one of the few volunteer-run dropzones still operating on a major city airport, we now call on our worldwide skydiving community to help keep that legacy alive.
Our trusty C-208 Caravan’s PT6 engine needs its mandatory major overhaul no later than 1 June 2026. The costs: € 250.000. A heavy lift for a volunteer club. Without the overhaul the aircraft will be grounded next season and our dropzone could fall silent. This is why we reach out to you.
Why help
- A unique urban DZ stays on the world map. We hope you’ll visit us someday and experience our small dropzone in Rotterdam yourself.
- Pure volunteer spirit. No paid owners, no shareholders. Every euro goes straight back into skydiving.
- Community pay-it-forward. Scattered across runways yet united by slipstream and blue skies, skydivers are a unique family. We believe in the power of our community to keep the dream alive, to keep our engine running.
Help us keep the spirit of skydiving alive in Rotterdam – for future generations, for our local jumpers, and for every skydiver who dreams of flying over this incredible skyline.
