Competition Para Commander or a copy of same. Mid seventies, was brought out to compete with Papion.

What particlar information are you looking for? I have the owners manual from my first Para Plane from around 1972, so I could look up anything you require. If it still has the original reefing system you are in for some interesting experiences, the openings would vary from really soft to knock you out. In my first 500 jumps on these parachutes I did ten or eleven cutaways because of that reefing system.

MOVE !

Bill Seeing Horst,s name reminded me of when he did a low pass at the old P.A.T. DZ at Damascas and missed the windsock beside the packing area by about a foot when he had the Piper Super Cub. Where is your brother Harry These days?

Two of the best low passes I ever saw first at a rehearsal for the St. Catherines Ontario Air Show in the early seventies when the RAF Red Arows got a warning form the tower about their first low pass, on the next one everyone in the control tower hit the floor and as I recall there were some broken windows. The next one was at an Air Show at London ,Ontario when a F4 was supposed to do a pass at .98 Mach and instead went slightly over at about one hundred feet
