Look here: http://www.parachutemanuals.com/Reserves/index.php/PISA?path=PISA/ Its the Tempo packing manual.

My copy of the Tempo manual does not say anything about limiting a Tempo to X number of jumps or X number of repacks or X number of years.

I doubt if PISA ever published any limits.

That puts to onus on field riggers to carefully inspect every reserve that crosses their path, and refuse to repack the worst canopies.

# years ago I came accross a Tempo that seemed to have had its share of repacks and/or jumps, I sent it off to the Manufacturer and they took 2 months in returning it to me with an invoice for freight and inspection, funny thing the inspection results were never written anywhere. I had to call and call and they finally sent me a copy of the invoice stating that it was airworthy as per their inspection, they further sent me the results of the permeability test as well.
If in doubt make the manufacturer put it in writing, if they won't you have your answer.
