2.5 Holders of advanced packing tickets
Description
This article is from the Skydiving FAQ, by Barry Brumitt with numerous contributions by others.
2.5 Holders of advanced packing tickets
may assemble and pack reserves/container/AAD combinations
that are specifically endorsed on their advanced packing
certificate, provided that they have the relevant manuals
and safety notices to hand. Remedial work is restricted
- my guess is that if can be called assembly it is OK, if
it is installation it is not OK. Fitting a Cypres to a
"Cypres ready" conatiner is acceptable - installing the
Cypres pocket is not.
It is no longer possible to obtain an advanced packing
certificate as the Advanced Packer qualification has
superceded it, but it may be still possible to get
additional endorsements on an existing certificate.
Holders of Advanced Packing Certificates have to get
their rating renewed each year by an Advanced Rigger.
Persons certified by an Advanced Rigger to pack round reserves in
front mounted containers may pack round reserves into front mounted
containers. No rating renewal applies!
