  1. That's an interesting comparison, especially as I'm a geek for the history of the space race. As far as development is concerned, I think an interesting consideration is that in that era there appeared to be very little difference between HALO equipment and civilian skydiving gear. If you're reading any of Annette O'Neil's recent articles on 50+ years of skydiving in Parachutist magazine you'll see many early guys started with military surplus rigs. However, as disciplines have become more refined we now have vastly different systems for MFF and civilian skydiving.
