    Shout out to Aerocon Systems!

    My 60" chutes came today from Aerocon and I'm very surprised at the quality of these chutes! The material, the lines and overall construction of these military flare chutes are very nice! They also come with deployment bags. Seriously you can't beat the price.

    If you're on a budget like myself you can't go wrong. I also have several of Aerocon's 36" chutes. I have used them and they work excellent. I can't wait to try these out.

    Get some dye at Michael's or any craft store store and dye them whatever color you want.

    Thanks again Bob for the excellent products you offer and the service. The shipping was very fast!!

    Yes in the near future I will be ..but the prices I couldn't pass up. IMO it's good to have variety of different size chutes for different conditions.

    I have bought stuff from Aerocon before. The 36in chutes are a very good value a 36in chute for $5!!!!. Protect it with some extra nomex, it's not to flameproof though!

    Yes I wrap it with Nomex too. I don't recall if any chutes are flameproof? At least not to knowledge?

    You Know You Have a Rocket Problem When...

    ... you purchase a five foot wide parachute because you "might need it in the future."
