Perfect, Bill. I didn't mean to imply otherwise. It's just that I
have seen many times in 35 years of rigging that this rule is not
always observed or even thought of at times. Good luck with your
repack and flights!

Yes, ask him how he is going to comply with the regulation:

No certificated parachute rigger may pack a parachute that has not
been thoroughly dried and aired.

Normal manufacturer's instructions call for an 8 hour airing.

Perhaps he is airing it in advance? Hope so.

Now, why would you assume that? Do you have some reason to think that he
wouldn't comply? Is there something about your profession you want to tell
us?

I left it in his loft yesterday for drying.
