Orange Skies Free Fall Center launched its opening weekend at Fort Morgan Municipal Airport in Colorado April 20-21. The inaugural weekend drew 150 skydivers for jumps from Maxim Aviation’s fast Supervan 900 (Cessna 208 Caravan). The DZ plans to be open Thursday-Monday throughout the summer and fall.
The new DZ reopened after closing at its previous location in Fort Collins. USPA assisted Orange Skies throughout the process of accessing the municipal airport, which offers a large landing area surrounded by farmland, and many local businesses have welcomed the DZ to the new location.
