tdog 0 #27 March 30, 2010 Quote [Who got the rig wet, you or him. I pack parachute equipment not SCUBA gear. Sparky I tend to run every rig thru the washing machine after packing to add value to my services. When I do it, I remove the packing data card. When my customer's do it, they sometimes forget... I don't want to have to explain to the FAA why I did not properly document my services when packjobs suddenly wash away.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpacemanSpiff 0 #28 March 30, 2010 I did the test on a few cards, some Tyvek ones that I had kicking around and a few customer ones. It's possible that it is not 100%, but from my quick tests, I was convinced enough to use the sharpie marker going forward to both sign and stamp my numbers on the cards. Since then, I've seen a few rigs come back to me with cards that got wet and my signatures/information was still very prominent while some of the other info on the card had run/blotted out. When I get a chance, I'll try running one through the washing machine as well, just to see what happens. nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
