Lifespan of a parachute canopy?
Does anyone know when our 17 year old emergency parachute
canopy will pass its use-by date? Indeed, is there a definite lifespan, or is it down to the discretion of the packer? The 'chute has always been stored indoors in a dark dry cupboard. Also, has anyone had any experience of having a new canopy fitted?
