Delivery
Before delivery to the customer the authorised dealer will check that
the ADVANCE reserve parachute package is complete. His confirma-
tion that this has been carried out together with the warranty card re-
turned to ADVANCE confirms that defects of the product attributable
to a manufacturing fault are covered by the ADVANCE warranty (see
in the «Service» section).
The delivery package of an ADVANCE PROTECT reserve includes an
ADVANCE inner container with attached pilot chute, as well as a user
manual with warranty card and packing/inspection certificate
(service booklet).
Type Placard
Every ADVANCE reserve parachute has a type placard, fixed to the
bridle. The type placard has the following information:
- Manufacturer
- Model
- Serial number
- Year of construction
Setting up
Packing the Reserve Parachute
Packing intervals
The reserve parachute must be aired and repacked every six months,
so that a fast and reliable opening can always be relied upon. It must
also, without exception, be repacked if it gets wet, damp, or very hot.
If the reserve parachute is opened in flight, whether in emergency or
for safety training, it must be inspected by the manufacturer or an
authorised service centre. The reserve parachute should also be
inspected thoroughly by a qualified person if it is subjected to a high
loading (tree landing).
If an inspection identifies damage that will affect the airworthiness of
the parachute it must be sent to the manufacturer or an authorised
service centre for repair. This also applies to any damage where an
affect on the airworthiness cannot be ruled out.
Packing preparation
Before the reserve parachute is packed it should be visually inspec-
ted by the packer. The parachute should then be aired for 24 hours in
a humidity of 60 - 65%.
