neilmcg 0 #1 July 15, 2004 I am looking for information about the Pioneer Highlifter Reserve parachute. The one I have is a 1985 date. Are there any AD's, Special performance characteristics etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

riggerrob 643 #3 July 16, 2004 I jumped Pioneer High Lifters back when they were fashionable as tandem mains, in the late 1980s. Those 375 square foot, 9-cell, F-111 High-Lifter canopies flew better than the PD-360s that replaced them. The main reason Pioneer stopped building gear for the sport market was a fear of lawyers. Provided that canopy has spent most of its life on the shelf, it should still be a credible reserve for a big guy (more than 230 pounds naked) and I would still be tempted to pack it into a Vector Tandem reserve container.
