funks 1 #3 August 9, 2005 Quotethis is a little off topic, may sound dumb...but how do you actually learn to pack your own chute and etc.. learn? you mean somebody is actually supposed to teach us? Its all trial by error. Buy a rig, cram the parachute into the bag, go to dropzone, get in airplane, jump when the light turns red (do not wait for green, if it turns red and nobody jumps start yelling at them to jump because they are probably just scared), pull thingy majig to make parachute come out of bag, land at airport. repeat above steps.

nate_1979 9 #4 August 9, 2005 There should be packing classes at your DZ... Or you pay a packer a fee to teach you how to pack.. Then it's trial and error, hopefully without the error FGF #???
