Narrative:

After searching for a clear space to drop skydivers, WX had closed in with a floor of 13500 ft. The only place I could find to descend VFR was over army restr airspace R3110AB&C. After descent, a safe landing was made with skydivers still in the aircraft. In the future, before climbing out for jump run, there will need to be better places to descend that are not over restr airspace.

Title: B90 PLT ENTERS RESTR AREA DURING DSCNT IN IMC.

Narrative: AFTER SEARCHING FOR A CLR SPACE TO DROP SKYDIVERS, WX HAD CLOSED IN WITH A FLOOR OF 13500 FT. THE ONLY PLACE I COULD FIND TO DSND VFR WAS OVER ARMY RESTR AIRSPACE R3110AB&C. AFTER DSCNT, A SAFE LNDG WAS MADE WITH SKYDIVERS STILL IN THE ACFT. IN THE FUTURE, BEFORE CLBING OUT FOR JUMP RUN, THERE WILL NEED TO BE BETTER PLACES TO DSND THAT ARE NOT OVER RESTR AIRSPACE.
