PARACHUTE

[Eduardo L. Brunialti]

What kind of rescue parachte  would best fit the 15 cockipt,  the seat pack type or back pack type?

Hi Brunialti,

I am 6'1'' tall and I have an old 1970 military chute (in very good shape) with the chute only in the back.  The good new: I fit OK in the glider (1.5'' of free space for my head) but I am very comfortable for long flight. I don't think that the ASW 15 gives you a lot of restriction in the choice of your chute but if you want a seat pack model, you should'nt be a tall guy. I don't know if it's the same for a B model.

No problem Brunialti,

The club where I fly has 2 other military chute, but they are not as confortable as mine... :S They have a metal frame in the back,  mine has a big cushion.

Good luck in your choice!!
