This is a great canopy and the company gave me a great deal with a military discount. The only thing I have found negative is the hard openings and im sure its just my pack jobs so no strike against the chute.

She probably didn't know any better a good place to start would have just been to ask her to get a hold of the DZ in the area there might even be a reward I know I would give one lol

I have jumped quite a few canopy's and what brought me to posting this is I just ordered a canopy and after trying some others I found I liked the Rage 130 from Flight Concepts. Red was very helpful and has continued to do a lot of the things people here have mentioned like keeping me informed on the progress of my canopy. Just seems to be a very knowledgeable and very helpful in helping me decide on the right canopy.

Yep I have seen the regional deal as well Im just curious what different people have to say. I guess what im getting at is they have VERY expensive canopys and yet seem to somewhat corner the market as we all know there are equal if not better canopys out there, just taking a poll...

Ok im sure im going to ruffle some feathers but why is it that most everyone is so stuck on PD there are so many good canopys out there. I now open it up to dicussion, enjoy!!!!

There is some good info on this on the USPA website I have traveled many times with mine in the past and have just put it in a bag and carried it on. The info on the USPA website says the same "carry it on" youll get some funny looks and they will want to open the bag of course just ensure you dont forget to take out the hook knife lol

Ok nevermind thanks for those who tried to help I just went with a W8 which will hold from a 130 to a 150 main and a 143 reserve..........

Dont know the way it was explained to me was that the size of the canopys dictated the size of the container.

Been talking with them the person I talked to wasnt familiar with the main i am using so im looking for some rigger advice or someone familiar with pack volumes enough to have an idea what if any problems im going to run into with this setup both function and looks the pack volume on the main is 325 (Rage 130 from flight concepts) and the reserve volume is 362 (PD 143R from performance Designs)

I was wanting to get some input from a rigger on if a PD 143 reserve would do well in a Wings container with a Rage 130? Looks function ETC.....

I would also like to thank Red at Flight Concepts for extending a very generous discount to military personnel.

you can drive on an expired one with a current military ID in most states.

I would like to thank Sunrise Manufacturing for serving those who serve. I have been calling around I am looking to buy a new rig and to my surprise on my new Wings container they offer active military 50% off their product. I wont mention names but in my shopping I was surprised that no other distributors of containers, mains or reserves offer such a generous discount. I wont get into that I'm meaning this as a thank you and don't mean to bash any others for the way they choose to do business. So once again thank you Scarlett Schneppat who responded so quickly to my inquiries and Sunrise Manufacturing for you generosity. SSG Mykle Arvidson
