Uncle John’s Flying Tips #13 – Reserve Parachute

It’s been 3 months since the re-pack nights.

As Velcro gets tighter and tighter as time goes on, don’t forget to periodically (and carefully!) undo any Velcro on your reserve handle, harness etc.  and then put it back

It’s best to do it one bit at a time, where possible

Also, do this indoors as if you accidentally deploy your reserve outside in the wind, it could be a big problem!

If In doubt, get some help from someone who knows what they are doing
