Packing

The reserve parachute must be repacked by a trained professional, a properly
prepared pilot always has a basic understanding of how his or her equipment
functions. To that end, an overview of the packing process is provided here.

These are not comprehensive packing instructions.
The canopy and the lines are to be stretched out on dry and clean surface. Carefully

avoid twisting or wrapping the lines. String a packing line through the loops on the
upper part of the canopy.

When the packing is finished this line must be removed otherwise reserve parachute
cannot be used.

Folding begins at the line without triangle,as shown on the pic3. Picture 4 shows the
line with triangle.

Two neighboring lines are pulled together, leaving the cloth to make a fold in
between. This process is repeated for each panel, making the cloth fold regularly.
