Hai - it was purely by accident that the first tab that shows up is FR so I checked in.

The Caravan in this case is set up for skydiving. It's used to take the jumpers to 13,000 feet quite quickly and then descend at around 5,000 feet per minute to beat the jumpers to the ground. Needlessly to say it's quite a trip. So ya, might be going for it. On good weekends you're flying twelve hours up and down.
