Thanks, Chris. I don't think I would enjoy it, but, all of these were
making joyful noises as they approached the ground.

The jump aircraft was a Cessna Caravan, the best choice I have seen for this

I was able to get a couple of images of tandem jumpers completing their jump.
All of the jumpers were very enthusiastic after landing.
