I will be making two posts with parachutes for sale. I purchased these as part of a bigger lot, and they just aren't really ideal for what I fly. I have no knowledge of their life before me. I will describe the chutes when they deviate from like-new condition. Please PM interest along with zipcode (so I can calculate your shipping options), shipment will be at cost (shipping fee and any materials), payment will be by paypal only. Please ask questions if you have any.



These are Rocketman parachutes, and a closely related chute. I can't find any evidence visually that these were ever flown...they look brand new.

(2) Rocketman R3C: $25 each - SOLD

(1) Rocketman R12C: $100 - SOLD

(1) Rocketman or incredible reproduction of one. There is no tag, but the construction is exactly the same to my eye, and the materials are spot on. If this is/were a Rocketman chute it is spot on measurements to be R2C: $15 - SOLD

Thus concludes the Rocketman section, more to come in a few minutes.

54" X-form chute. Appears to be Top Flight in materials and construction, but no way to verify. There is one very small hole and snag pictured below...does not look like a risk to propagate: $15 - SOLD

(2) 18" X-form chutes with long nylon lines. These have what looks like a few marks from a sharpie or like marker (don't think bp because no damage around marks) and appear used. $5 each or both for $8 - SOLD

(1) ~7.5' light weight ripstop nylon chute with nylon lines. Appears new: $35 - SOLD

Glad you are happy, Teddy.

As many have noted before, you are indeed great to deal with.

I assume you will be posting some shots of that big chute in use sometime down the road.

It was a pleasure, Denis. I also learned how to do international USPS too, pretty easy. I hope to see some pictures of beautiful rockets under chute in Bavarian skies.
 
Received the 'chutes today. They are in great shape! I think they'll fly next weekend. :) Phil L.
