As above the only manual most civilians have is the container manual AND The Parachute Manual by Poynter. (know as PPM Vol. I and II by the FAA)

There is also a Butler manual and a Softie (Paraphernalia) manual as well as the Strong manual.

The four line that comes on a C-9 is in Poynter's but you have to look close to get the right one. Most of the time if it's right and tacked leave it hooked up. If it's undone you might need someone to show you how to do it the first time.

And it's in this strong manual http://www.strongparachutes.com/docs/Emergency/30610.pdf but I didn't see it in the L-39 manual. Go to appendix A.

BTW it's not special even if it has serial number 1. I've packed a couple of different #1's. It's the first one of that contract/manufacturer.

I'm old for my age.
