Oh, and this was no where near Fiji. The skydive operator apparently just leases planes from anywhere. The other Twin Otter was from "Skydive New England".

Thanks for looking.

Two more of the "Van":





Have a few up the back too if interested. Just a bare-bones layout for skydiving. No seats, just the floor.
