a packed parachute, except as directed by the local air delivery equipment maintenance activity officer. A log
record which is illegible, lost, damaged, soiled, or precludes further entries due to lack of space will be replaced

e. Installing Attaching Tie. Install attaching tie as follows:
(1) Cut a 30-inch length of size 6 waxed nylon thread (item 36/37, Appendix D) and double the thread
length to form a 15-inch length, double strand.
(2) Pass the looped end of the double thread length around the centerfold of the log record and form a
slip loop on the outside at the log record top (A, figure 2-1).
(3) Pass the thread length running ends through the corner attaching hole from the front cover of the log
record (B, figure 2-1) and ensure running ends are routed over that part of the thread length located
along the log record centerfold (C, figure 2-1).
(4) Complete the attachment tie by making a half hitch on top of the slip loop made in (2) above.
(5) Thread one running end of the log record attachment tie in a tacking needle and pass the tacking
needle with attached thread end through the edge binding of the applicable parachute log
record/inspection data pocket.
(6) Remove the thread end from the tacking needle and make a finished 10-inch long log attaching loop
by securing the two thread ends together with an overhand knot.
(7) Insert log record into the pocket and secure the record within pocket using the pocket flap and
applicable type flap fastener.
