Thank you for this helpful info. I will contact Mr. Wagner immediately. I live in Colfax, Ca. and am 15 minutes away from Auburn Airport. There has to be someone close to that location or maybe in Lincoln, Ca. I am searching on this site for a rigger...but I still don't know what that is. (I'm in the medical field). Would love to find a site that had pictures and arrows that helped point and I.D. each portion of the equipment. Still trying to figure out what a DOM is... Thanks again!

I'm trying my best to keep up on terminology, so forgive me if I misunderstand. The parachute was given to me via large trash bag. I've had it a few years. We took it to a place in Lodi, Ca. and they stretched the canopy out, inspected etc. This is also the form that was found in the inside pouch of the case. They packed the main and the reserve. One thing I neglected to do while it was open was take a picture and now that it's packed, the colors, logo etc. are hidden. I did find a similar photo in the achives of the Golden Knights/Army website, but the photo has a copyright. I mostly wanted to know if there were laws pertaining to selling this equipment. I've noticed on some auction sites they have serial numbers etc. and I wasn't sure if this info was registered. Integrity is important to me and I want to do this right the first time. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

I believe it actually is already "packed". There was inspection paperwork inside the pocket of the case reading numerous checkpoints, including: Work order, Packing Data Card, Harness, Connector Links, AAD, Pilot Chute & Bridle, etc. There is also a section with OUT & IN and numbers hand written after them. I'm afraid to see what happens if I pull the cord, so I've opted to leave it alone.

Greetings from Colfax, CA! I have inherited what appears to be the complete gear of a relative. I have several questions related to the proper advertisement and future sale of this equipment. It is my desire to keep the relatives name private, although his name is stitched on the case. I want to be compliant to any laws pertaining to the listing of articles that fall under FAA etc. regulations. What I know this far is the following: There are two canopies-the main is a VECTOR and the reserve is SWIFT. The canopy has USA and the outside kit is stitched United States National Skydiving Team 1989 and WILLIE. There is a patch on the outside kit which reads US Parachute Team and additional stitching on the straps reading USA Team. Although it is not mentioned, he served as a team member of the Golden Knights. This was a difficult decision for our family, as we have great respect for his service, but we all have selected the memorabilia that holds dear to us, and feel this parachute will mean more to someone who either served with him or has a passion for the sport. I am a hospice and EMS nurse and know nothing about the sport. This was the only means to put the info out to others who may provide advice. Thank you.
