180 day reserve repacks	Can't Post

I thought I read in Parachutist that the USPA was going to start requiring reserve repacks every 180 days, instead of every 120. Does anybody know when that will take affect?

That's regulated by the FAA, not the USPA. Wink

Here are the very informative results of a quick search...

and yes, the USPA doesn't make the rule, the FAA does.
