References Group No. 01, MAC (WP 0047 00) Thread, Nylon, Size E (Item 53/56, WP 0057 00)   REPAIR Stitch and restitch with nylon thread, size E, that is contrasting in color.  Lock all straight stitching by back stitching at least ½-inch.  Restitch over the original stitch pattern. REPLACE When installed on a parachute canopy, a pocket band will be positioned on the outside of the lower lateral band, with a band end attached on each side of a suspension line, thereby allowing a free length of material to pass over the suspension line.  A pocket band that is damaged will be replaced by fabricating using the following procedures: 1.    Place the canopy assembly on a repair table, or other repair surface, with the damaged pocket band facing up. 2.    Mark the lower lateral band, at each end of the damaged pocket band length. 3.    Remove the affected pocket band from the canopy by cutting the stitching securing each of the band ends to the lower lateral band.  Remove stitching on anti-inversion net and place out of the way until the pocket band is sewn. 4.    Fabricate a new pocket band by cutting an 11¾-inch length of type I, tubular nylon tape; sear the ends. 5.    Position the replacement pocket band length in the original pocket band location; align the material ends with the marks made in step 2., above.
