Is 20+ years too old for a reserve parachute?
keithbar replied to PixieUK's topic in Gear and Rigging
^^^^^ This. I hope that this answers your question. so i guess now my question if the acid mesh is not a concern. does the pull test tell you anything on an old reserve. I thought that was why you wanted to do it on a reserve that was 20 + years old even though it has no rides. i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response.

Is 20+ years too old for a reserve parachute?
keithbar replied to PixieUK's topic in Gear and Rigging
Your question is too general in nature. It all depends upon the specific reserve canopy. One would need to know specifically what reserve you are interested in; then we could proceed from that knowledge. JerryBaumchen well I'm talking about a late 80's era square reserve. one of the super raven's i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response.

so I'm just curious if you pack and older reserve. and you pull tested and it passes fine. would it then need to be tested at each and every repack thereafter . or less often once a year ? just curious if there is an accepted standard for how often the pull test needs to be done i have on occasion been accused of pulling low .

I am thinking that you are wrong. I'm not going to chase it down, but I do believe that the FAA put out a letter that stated unless a service life was put forth at the time of original certification ( i,e., issuance of the TSO ) then a mfr cannot legally impose a service life. JerryBaumchen man I'm glad to hear that. I trust my life to a 1988 raven 2 on almost every jump. but hey it's never been deployed. lived it's whole life packed inside a cont. i an't worried one iota -
so I am thinking about setting up an older talon. with at least a 190 main and maybe up to a 230 or so. depending on what i find over the winter. so to lift a good size canopy of me. a big guy with a big for it's day. but not so big now suit. (a raptor. )and needing to be able to go as big as i want in the future a 30" or 32" pilot chute and 9' 10' 12' bridle? and cut. ? or dynamic ? corners. I read all the old war about it but it was a while back i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

***Measurements? Not needed for cheap jumpsuits. You just pick from one of the sizes they offer: XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL what? no 3 xl i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

damn I stand corrected do so the smart ass remark. that I made was actually good advice. but seriously do you think there's much of a performance increase? this guy is maybe loading this 300 at .6 I know a guy in full combat gear with all kinds of ammo would be at a much higher wing loading. I could see it helping at that point i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .

I helped a friend pack a pd 300 the other day . that had a 32 inch collapsible p.c. on it. I told him to get the best swoop he should get a slider to i have on occasion been accused of pulling low . My response. Naw I wasn't low I'm just such a big guy I look closer than I really am .
