Responsibilities

Muster each morning with the packing deck supervisor to receive instructions for the day

Pack tactical and non-tactical Commercial off the Shelf (COTS) Ram Air Personnel Parachute Systems (RAPPS). Must be qualified to pack and maintain military owned parachutes systems to include, but not limited to the following: MT-2XX main/reserve and non-standard main/reserve

Pack all and maintain all systems in accordance with military technical manuals and/or the manufacture’s recommendations

Perform repairs such as the patching of canopies, line replacements, hand-tacking and so on in accordance with FAR part 65, applicable military technical manuals & FAA-H-8083-17 Parachute Rigger Handbook PG 1-2. The two types of certificates differ in the level of experience and responsibility. A senior parachute rigger may pack, as well as maintain, a parachute by making minor repairs. A master parachute rigger has all the privileges of the lesser certificate plus the ability to make major repairs and alter parachutes according to the approved data. A major repair is one that if improperly done, can appreciably affect the airworthiness of the parachute. An example of this might be replacing a damaged canopy panel or altering a harness by changing the size of the main lift web. A minor repair is anything other than a major repair, such as, a small patch on a canopy or the replacement of a defective or worn connector link. The employees contracted for this effort are anticipated to spend less than 10% of their time performing repair work
