<div>This year we celebrate our <strong>60-year anniversary as the very first civilian skydiving club in the Netherlands</strong>. From a single Cessna in 1965 to today’s C-208 Caravan, our <strong>100 % volunteer </strong>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.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our trusty C-208 Caravan’s PT6 engine needs its mandatory <strong>major overhaul no later than 1 June 2026</strong>. The costs: <strong>€ 250.000</strong>. 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.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<ul>
<li><strong>A unique urban DZ stays on the world map</strong>. We hope you’ll visit us someday and experience our small dropzone in Rotterdam yourself.
</li>
<li><strong>Pure volunteer spirit</strong>. No paid owners, no shareholders. Every euro goes straight back into skydiving.
</li>
<li><strong>Community pay-it-forward</strong>. 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.
</li>
</ul>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>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.
