RE: 30" x 60" Flag drop
Hi Jim ,
I have made some jumps recently with a larger flag , and it went very well .
The flag is 47,2 " x 43,3" .
I have added 7 oz of lead below the flag , the lead was folded flat the same size as the folded flag.
The total weight of the skydiver is 53oz + 7oz of lead for the flag is 60 oz.
The big Parafoil 96 max weight it can take is 67oz -70oz total .
This skydiver can pull down the front of the chute altering the angel of attack to get more forward motion .
When there is more than 15 mph wind the combination is starting flying backwards to , even pulling down the front of the chute .
,Jules
