Have you considered an
emergency chute for aerobatic purposes?
Remember, FAR(s) require a
parachute for both pilot and
passenger when performing
aerobatic maneuvers.
The biggest problem pilots
have in choosing a suitable emergency parachute is not having the ability
to try on the different "packing configurations" inside their
own planes before selecting a model.
For example, in our Stearmans
we use the "seat packs" because you cannot afford to be pushed
forward towards the stick.
Citabrias and Decathlons use
the "backpacks" and Pitts, Yaks and Warbirds use the contoured
"chairpacks".
Olde Thyme Aviation, Inc. is
your Northwest dealer for NATIONAL PARACHUTE. National Parachute has the
best reputation for quality, workmanship and service.
| National's
Back Pack was developed with the pilot in mind and is our most
popular model. The teardrop shape provides flexibility
and maximum comfort even in the tightest cockpits. The shape
and size make this model the most all-around universal parachute |
 |
 |
|
National's
Seat Pack is especially desirable when the cockpit has more
vertical space than horizontal. For added comfort, the seat pad
has one inch of "Astronaut Foam" above the parachute
container (user accessible/adjustable via Velcro closure).
