NOTE
After placing parachute in proper layout, ensure a type V coreless nylon
suspension line spacer is between lines 7 and 8, and lines 21 and 22.
When inversion, turns, tangles and twist are present in the canopy assembly,
the proper sequence for removal to achieve proper layout is to remove an
inversion first, remove turns secondly, then remove tangles, and finally,
remove twist.
d. Removing Inversion. The canopy vent lines shall be checked to ascertain if the canopy has been inverted.
Should the vent lines be on the inside of the upper lateral band, the canopy is Inverted. To remove an inversion,
proceed as follows:
(1) Remove the canopy from apex hook, pass canopy vent down through the canopy.
(2) Bring vent out at skirt between two adjacent suspension lines (figure 2-11).
(3) Reattach the canopy to apex hook after the inversion is removed.
