dks13827 3 #1 June 17, 2009 Bob Stroud D-4230, Astronaut Fred Leslie STS-73,D-4154, Dave Stephens SCS 2477 Pop Top reserves with Navy Conicals, they worked great. Bob was our fine rigger and the first to pack Pop Tops for us. They were a bitch, and some guys only packed them once then quit doing it, but Bob took it all in stride and did a great job !!

dks13827 3 #4 June 18, 2009 Note the 'state of the art gear'. Paracommanders, Papillons, and new Pop Tops. This was very, very good equipment, too !!! 4 months later (Jan 1975) we ordered our Para Flite Strato Stars and believe me, that was a huge deal. Revolutionary !! Just like the Para Commander in 1963 got folks off of cheapo's and lopo's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
