aside from being too old for many certified riggers to offer to I&R this
parachute the Pioneer parachutes also had a number of AD's against them.make
sure whoever is inspecting and repacking this parachute not only reads the
manual for repacking but also checks to see if the canopy is even
airworthy....I'd be curious to know if this Pioneer parachute from this
vintage.

I have a Pioneer Thin Pack that was manufactured in 1974. Last repack was
March of 2011. Rigger's comment was "Excellent condition". Works great in
a glider with deep seating, but in my LAK-17a, it causes me to sit too
high. I'm looking to swap for a back pack type 'chute.
