Default Old Parachute

even if it were not so old the Pioneer had some pretty serious AD's way back
when, having not been packed in 10 years you may find this is the reason!
I've seen these parachutes and was not very impressed with the design even
back when they were still relatively current.....to be very honest, it's
time to move on...unless YOU have no more value that the 35 year old
parachute!

I have a Pioneer Thin Pack that hasn't been inspected in about 10
years. The canopy is 35 years old. It's always been properly stored.

I'm looking for a rigger who will inspect this chute and, if it passes
inspection, will sign it off. Someone in the Moriarty, NM area would
be great, but I'm willing to ship it.

It's a shame to toss out perfectly good equipment but, on the other
hand, it will make a great car cover if it fails inspection.
