The February Chapter meeting will be held at the Commemorative Air Force Heart of America Wing hangar at the New Century AirCenter on February 20th at 7pm.  The meeting will feature guest speaker Jen Sharp, Master Parachute Rigger and Skydiving Instructor from Skydive Kansas.

Jen made her first skydive at the age of 18 in 1989, and has since logged more than 3,000 skydives.  She holds numerous credentials as a skydiving instructor and is one of only six National Examiner Directors for the USPA in the United States.

She became a designated FAA Senior Rigger in 1995, and in 2009 achieved the rank of Master Rigger.

Jen is qualified to repack both backpack and seat pack emergency parachutes, and has owned and operated Skydive Kansas since 1995.

Jen will speak about owning and maintaining a parachute and will discuss various aspects of proper use, care and fitting of emergency parachutes worn in aerobatic airplanes.  She will also discuss things to look for when purchasing a parachute.

If your parachute is out of date, bring it to the meeting.  Jen has repacked several chutes for IAC15 club members, and is offering chute repacking for $60.

IAC15 is opening up this meeting for fellow local aviation organizations that have an interest in parachute operations, such as the CAF, EAA, and the local Glider Club.
