Clouddancer22 0 #1 September 19, 2012 I was wondering if anyone had a Monarch 175 owners manual and line trim specs??? I bought a canopy that definitely needs a new line set, but the canopy fabric and stitching looks in good shape, at least for a few hundred jumps until I can afford a newer canopy.D-11672 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clouddancer22 0 #3 September 19, 2012 I did. Also sent them an email last month. I guess they are pretty busy, and someone is eventually supposed to get back to me. Just hoping for a quicker answer - I get so impatient sometimes.D-11672 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About three years ago, Precision mailed me a complete line set for a Monarch ... I sewed the new lines on and the customer is still happily jumping his Monarch.

Clouddancer22 0 #5 September 21, 2012 What size Monarch? They are not so responsive this month!!!! Btw, you are not the same Rob that visited Cal-City in the 80's and helped with Butler Parachutes???? Didn't you borrow a Calculus book . . . .D-11672 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 558 #6 September 21, 2012 I vaguely remember re-lining a Monarch 175. George Galloway is rather selective about which Master Riggers he trusts to re-line Precision canopies. It might help if the request came from your friendly neighborhood Master Rigger. Yes, I am the Rob W. who arrived in California City in late 1992. I worked for Manley Butler. When Manley announced that he was moving his factory to Virginia, we quietly parted ways. After a year in Cal. City, I moved down to the Perris/Elsinore/Hemet area until 1998. While in Perris, I worked for Sandy Reid - at Rigging Innovations - until he announced that he was moving the factory to Arizona. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clouddancer22 0 #7 September 21, 2012 You weren't at Manley's all that long - at least to the best of my recollection. Do you remember me per chance? I was the first person Manley hired at Cal-City. And I do not believe you returned my calculus book . . . you don't still have it by any chance? Lol, I am a math teacher now! D-11672 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
