(a) Restitching. Stitch and restitch with size E nylon thread which matches the color of the original stitching when possible. Lock all straight stitching by backstitching at least 1/2 inch. Restitch by overstitching each end of the stitch formation by 1/2 inch. Restitch directly over the original stitching, following the original stitch pattern as closely as possible. Stitching will be in accordance with paragraph 2-19 and table 2-3. (b) Splicing. The skirt reinforcement webbing (lower lateral band) is limited to three splices. In addition, a splice will not extend across any suspension line(s) and a splice will not be performed if less than 4 inches of undamaged material remains on each side of the damaged area. Splice a damaged skirt reinforcement webbing (lower lateral band) as follows: 1 Cut a length of 1 -inch wide, type IV nylon webbing long enough to extend 3 1/2 inches beyond each side of the damaged area and sear the ends. 2 Center the webbing length over the damaged area on the canopy outside and secure the splice by stitching four continuous rows along the full length of the splice material (figure 2-143). Each row of stitching will be started at a point 1/2 inch from one end of the splice material and finished 1/2 inch beyond the opposite end of the splice material. Stitching will be made with a light-duty sewing machine using size E nylon thread, 7 to 11 stitches per inch. 2-199
