this is from USPA's website December 20, 2003 Alexandria, Virginia Due to cost and personal security of a parachute rig, many skydivers prefer to carry their rigs onto commercial flights. At this point, USPA knows of no U.S. airline that prohibits parachute rigs as carry-on items. However, jumpers may find it easier to carry their equipment in a protective equipment bag. It is always advisable to present a good profile to inspectors, who are trained to observe numerous external passenger traits and characteristics. At USPA's request, the Transportation Security Administration is providing information to its screener agents about rigs and computerized automatic activation devices installed on most parachutes. This information should reduce the necessity for a detailed, hand-inspection of a rig, which otherwise could include the opening of a reserve container. (Most skydivers are not authorized to reclose a reserve parachute.) It should also reduce instances of a jumper with a parachute being turned away from the gate area. Checked Item Beginning January 1, the TSA requires all checked items to be inspected before being placed on an airplane. The TSA is advising passengers not to lock checked bags so they can be opened for inspection. Tests involving USPA and TSA officials at the TSA facility in Atlantic City verified that AADs do not trigger explosive detection equipment used by airport security. TSA officials assured USPA that a hand search of a checked item should not occur if the item successfully passes through security systems that airports have installed. Skydivers should be prepared, because isolated problems getting parachutes through security may still occur, typically requiring better communication with airport security personnel. Jumpers should carry and present USPA membership cards and/or FAA rigger certificates in the event their parachute is flagged. USPA advises jumpers to remain patient, cooperate and to provide USPA with the date, time, airport, and details of the problem, including whether the parachute rig was being transported as a carry-on or checked item.

I have jumped at -10f at alti. before never again. A full face helmet would not be good with a face shield, unless you have a good defroster installed. Byron
