Skydive Myrtle Beach To Get Its Day In Court

Judge Orders Discovery In Lawsuit Charging Conspiracy

Discovery has been ordered by a federal magistrate in a lawsuit against Horry County SC, Horry County Department of Airports (HCDA), the FAA in which Skydive Myrtle Beach owner Aaron Holly charges that the government and agencies have conspired against him to deprive him of his constitutional rights.

The Grand Strand Daily reports that in his lawsuit, Holly alleges that the entities conspired to deprive him of his constitutional rights under the 14th amendment for interference with his business, which he says was illegally shut down.
 
The long-running dispute dates back to 2013, when the Horry County government bought out Ramp 66 at Horry County Airport which held the lease for Skydive Myrtle Beach. The government charged Skydive Myrtle Beach with alleged safety violations as justification for shutting down the business, but the FAA has admitted that it can find no documentation of any of the 112 alleged safety violations on the part of the business. Skydive Myrtle Beach has also never received any documentation from the county about the alleged violations.
 
Many questions remain about the case, but the FAA requires that safety violations must be documented using a Mandatory Occurrence Report, and that information must be entered into the FAA Comprehensive Data and Electronic Reporting (CEDAR) system.
