  4. The regs. require he list any defects he finds, they make not mentions of repairing said defects. Sparky (c) Each certificated parachute rigger who packs a parachute shall write, on the parachute packing record attached to the parachute, the date and place of the packing and a notation of any defects he finds on inspection. He shall sign that record with his name and the number of his certificate. More over, the customer may well have been informed of said holes and opted to not have them dealt with, fir what ever reason. If the rigger deems it is NON-air worthy they can refuse to pack it and state so on the card, cant they?

Setting up two ipods to sync different playlists isn't rocket surgery, if shah can't figure it out... I'll explain it to him.

  14. That much mass has a LOT of inertia (kind of the definition if you think about it). My guess it it would go through the front and back windows without too much problem at a fairly low speed depending on the size of the windows and the angle it hit. yes there is a lot of inertia, but to get that mass moving and then airborne, let alone traveling through the entire length of the vehicle i think woul take quite a lot of initial force.

  18. How do you loosen your chest strap while holding toggles without making your canopy fly all over the place? Easy, both hands at same height on chest puts me in about half breaks. Push L/R lift webs together, release buckle and loosen strap. I Freefly pretty much exclusivly so my chest strap is tight for freefall.
