This is a surplus flare parachute. It
is made of nylon (I assume -- I am not
a material expert).
The parachute is round in shape. If
you fold it in half it measures 36 inches
across at the fold.
As the parachute comes down, the lines
pull it in and it balloons across to
about 24 inches. I couldn\'t measure it,
but eyeballed it.
Tennis ball NOT included.
All of our parachutes are identical
EXCEPT some have slightly longer lines
than others.
Flare Parachute
Over the years we have found that a
tennis ball is the ideal parachutist to
hang on the end.
Our parachutes are great, but it pays to
use common sense when launching.
When you hand launch, the parachute
does not open every time.
A piece of pipe or other hard object
will ding a fender or crack a
windshield. It will also put a knot on
the head of someone who is not paying
attention. A tennis ball does not hurt
and does not do damage.
It can be launched by hand, just throw
it up in the air.
It can be launched with a water balloon
launcher. Watch your chin as it goes up.
A neighbor boy launched one in a water
balloon launcher, but had a water pipe
elbow for a weight. I forget how many
stitches he got.
I always thought these would be great
launched from a model airplane, rocket or from
a high flying kite.
One time I hand launched one of these
parachutes in a parking lot. The hot
asphalt apparently created a thermal
updraft and instead of the parachute
drifting down, it caught the uplifted
air, went over a wall and was never
seen again.
We put a tennis ball in a plastic
sandwich bag or similar size bag. We
just tie the baggy to the end of the
parachute lines using the parachutes
own lines. Nylon Canopy & Fireproof Lines:
The reason the lines arefireproof
is that a hot, burning flare will not melt
the lines as the flare descends. Non-Smoking Home & Business
