Ahhh, you gotta love those 72's 8) .
Some nice pics there, pic 4 and 5 get my vote.
Not sure they would actauly be used for skydiving, just a bit pricey ;) .

Awesome pics! What kind of plane is that? I'm afraid I've never seen one like that before...

Well its an AN-72 ( the 70 and 74 looks basically the same as well ), a beautiful Ukrainian plane that nowdays gets used throught europe ( though still quite rare in western europe ) mostly for cargo.
A net picture of the an-72

Doc is right
Antonov An-70 is similar to C-130 Herc, a lil bigger I must say, double props in each turboprop powerful engines and same kind of cargo doors
The Antonov An-72/74 are the same actually, the sizes are diferent.
cya!
But , where do you find this fella??
