Skydive Wissota / Indianhead SPC

Open weekends year-round and Wednesday evenings during Daylight Savings Time. Located near Lake Wissota and State Park. Air-conditioned and heated club house.

State-of-the-art student gear: includes automatic activating devices (AAD) for the reserve parachute, square or “ram-air” type parachutes (for a slow descent & soft landing) and ground-to-air radio for assistance under canopy.

Aircraft: Three Cessna 182 Skylanes are hangared at Wissota Airport (location identifier 4WI0). Each airplane has a capacity of five people; the pilot and four skydivers. These planes have been specially modified to accommodate skydiving with the removal of unneeded seats and the addition of seat belts on the floor.  The average altitude reached is 10,000 ft Above Ground Level (AGL). Our pilots are commercially licensed and thoroughly trained to handle any problems or emergencies.

There is also plenty of room outdoors for camping or RVing. The student landing area is large and includes most of the dropzone except for the runways.
