Buying used gear
Used gear can be a good way to start, as long as it suits you and is in good condition. Before you buy, check:
- the wing's certification class, and that its weight range suits you;
- its age and how many hours it has flown;
- when its lines and fabric (porosity) were last checked;
- when the reserve parachute was last repacked;
- whether it has been in any incident.
Have it inspected by a service centre before you fly it.
