riggerrob 558 #29 February 6, 2004 QuoteYeah, the one you are refering to is packing "under supervision" of his dad. Therefore his dad was signing off on the repacks. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> That whole concept of "packing under the supervision of a licensed rigger" is a grey area. Interpretation varies widely from one DZ to the next. For example, I was laid off from one loft because I refused to sign on top of repacks done by a guy who had no intention of every testing for a riggers' rating. On the other hand, a chat with the local FAA DPRE confirmed that he believed that the whole concept of "packing under the supervision of a licensed rigger" was only for training purposes (i.e. 20 supervised pack jobs required before the Senior Rigger test). We agreed that if someone packed more than 30 reserves "under supervision" then something was wrong. In conclusion, I will cheerfully supervise a rigger apprentice on the first 20 reserve repacks, but when he exceeds 30 "under supervision" he has worn out his welcome in my loft.

If they falsely claim a Rigger's rating, Instructional rating, etc, they should be reveled. Care should be taken to make sure they really do not have the rating, and if possible, given the chance, privately, to correct their profile/claims. For example, hpalmer claims to be; Static Line: Instructor/Examiner IAD: Instructor/Examiner Tandem: Jumpmaster Rigging Qualifications Back: Master Rigger Chest: Master Rigger Seat: Master Rigger Lap: Master Rigger He isn't an Instructor/Examiner, nor Master Rigger, nor does he have seat, lap or chest ratings, only Senior Rigger for Back.
