    sorry I measured the inside of the pack tray width side to side is 15.5 length top to bottom is 23.5 depth is 4 inches from the packing tray to the corner of the container.

    Width of tray is 15.15.5 length 23.5 hgt looks to be about 4" seller. I have eyes on an 89 phantom 28 or a 26ft phantom mfg 11-89 laminated Kevlar (lines I assume) installed in 88. Seller says these will fit and come with all applicable parts. Are these the acid type chutes you would avoid?

    If I could find a part number I would the only thing it says on the tag is model beta emergency type back parachute serial 1137 date 7/4/81 container type wt 2 or 8 can't read it well. Harness type/wt 3 lb see owners manual for a list of approved canopies. 3 pin design btw

    So I have a container butler beta and was looking to put together a emergency bailout rig for my plane. My understanding is these used strong lopo rounds. Any ideas what else I need i.e. diaper pilot chute risers? And any ideas where I can get these cheap, but still usable? Thanks for any Info

    I have an old heatwave manual laying around not that that is much help
  14. medic0079
    I have a heatwave in the closet
  15. medic0079
    just my 2C a 150 is probably fine for you, but as you approach a 1:1 ratio the landings level out more and you have more lift. it is easy to get into a situation where you can "pop up", or even stall your canopy. I would at least borrow a 170 for few jumps as you will see a significant difference between a 190 to a 150.

    makes a huge difference how deep you are going, and what type of water you are diving in, anything about 30-40ft you don't really need a filter. Hero 2 was not in focus because of the round lens distorting the image you can get a flat lens replacement, or buy a new hero with flat lens.

    He was busting ur balls looks like someone just made one as described above. I'm sure it is plenty functional (maybe) just not refined or pretty as a real slink would be
  24. medic0079

    err on the decent side :) I don't mind spending some money esp if I can have some options.
