PhreeZone 14 #27 December 17, 2002 Ype, my girlfriend got stoped by the TSA and told they would not allow her to carry a rig on since she might hijack the plane, point it at a building then bail out. We had to check her rig and hurry her back through security. Now she just checks it any time she flys.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freakyrat 1 #29 December 29, 2002 Check my earlier posts about Travellin with your rig. The USPA and TSA have done tests with a variety of rig and AAD combinatiions at the TSA's lab in Atlantic City, NJ. NO test has set off any alarms on any of the machines. The data is on the USPA website. I also have the attachment posted with my original post. Also I personaly took pictures of my Reserve Pilot Chute and Cypres Components while my Cypres was out for 4-yr maintenance. www.pia.com/SSK also has the DOT letter posted on their website. Yeah this subject has been beat to death, Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
