Pilot Chute

[Phillbo 11]

I bought a used Container and a new Canopy. Neither came with a Pilot Chute. Wheres the best place to get one on-line? I've done a search on a couple of the larger dealers and both come back with a page for the Pilot canopy

Also , F-111 or Zero -P ???

you should talk to whoever you bought your container from... it should come with a pilot chute

Try this http://www.paragear.com/frame.asp?menu=group%3d27%26level%3d1&main=templates/base_template.asp%3fgroup%3d27

You might try contacting the manufacturer of the harness-container. Tell them what you need and the size of your main parachute. They'll be able to help you. Square one, American Skydiving Systems or Sunshine Factory can also help you. As for 0-P or F-111, they'll be able to advise you in that regard also.
Hope, this helps.

You've been jumping for 10 years and haven't figured out paragear is one big scam yet?

Alright... not a scam. Just sucky prices. They sucker in new jumpers by sending out the catalog. SHOP AROUND. If you can find something somewhere other than paragear (they do have a good selection), chances are you can find a better price.
