ripcord4 0 #1 July 30, 2013 I'm going back a while here: does anyone have or know where to find a training outline for student parachutists via the static line system? I need a lesson plan from back in the '60's for static lining round parachutes. Need it for round canopies, not todays squares. I need the whole plan, PLF's, mals, canopy control, etc. I'm hoping some of the old-timers here can point me in the right direction. With a very minimum of smart-ass remarks and questions, please. I'm in need of the plan(s) for a good reason. Thanks in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theonlyski 8 #4 July 30, 2013 Hey, it met all of the OP's requirements. Static line - check Training on rounds - check From the 1960's - check PLF's - CHECK Canopy control - Check canopy and gain canopy control "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragon2 2 #7 August 31, 2013 Does this not cover enough for you? (sorry, couldn't resist) Since we have a good number of rounds at our DZ at times, I could maybe get you a lesson plan, 'm just hoping we have them in English as well (could be, we have brits jumping here sometimes). If you still need it, I could ask around... ciel bleu, Saskia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
