Person jumping from a plane (8)

I believe the answer is:

skydiver

(Other definitions for skydiver that I've seen before include "I jump out of planes" , "Acrobatic parachutist" , "Sporting parachutist" , "Aerial jumper" , "Person who performs acrobatics in upper air before opening parachute" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
