that is exactly why they have the requirement.......what you're suggesting
is that it would be OK or better to violate the regulations and take a chance on it being airworthy... than to comply and know it's airworthy....that's why they don't simply "recommend" I&R......with this thinking most parachutes would never be inspected. tim "Ramy Yanetz" wrote in message ... You better violate the FAA regs and fly with an expired parachute than expiring from not flying with it... Ramy "nowhere" wrote in message om... The funny thing is that when the chute passes it's 120 day repack limit you can also just leave it in the trailer when you go flying if you don't want to violate FAA regs......Sort of like requiring a $50 inspection every four months for motorcycle helmets, if you wear one, but leaving the wearing of them up to the individual rider.
