I take it home at the end of every jump day and inspect it there while packing it. No distractions and a controlled environment.

BIGUN 1,483 #3 January 10, 2005 Cursory inspection at the end of each jump weekend. Monthly; while I'm doing my monthly maintenance, Rigger inspection every reserve repack cycle. Most of the riggers around here charge $5.00 to inspect the main and return it to me unpacked.Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
