I am looking for some information about the L-29 parachute system. The Romanian L-29 used the PK-29 chute. I think the Czech and Russian aircraft used the S-3. Can someone confirm that for me?
These are not normal chutes and utilized an internal barometric device to auto open the chute as well as a chute bottom emergency oxygen canister. I am looking at making the seats hot in one of my L-29's. I need to have these functions available. Choices are to have these features added to a USA strong type chute or buy new foreign made chutes (very pricy) or have a material strength test and try to utilize these original chutes from 1996.
I am looking for any CONSTRUCTIVE comments . thanks...bob

I'm not sure about strong chutes but my butlers in my T-33 have both of those options

It has turned into a very complicated issue. If you are going to have hot seats you need the auto inflate option as well as the emergency oxygen. I prefer to maintain the Russian harness system that I am familiar with. The only choice may be to have these features custom added to a USA made chute. I have these PK-29 chutes that appear in great condition and i was hoping to get some use before I had to spend the big bucks . But the ultimate concern is safety of course

What altitudes do you fly at?
I have the Czech parachutes, they do not have the oxygen (neither does my aircraft) but do have the barometric "auto opener" set to open at around 10-12k feet.
Here were I am I don't operate above 20k ft so they are ok as they are, without the oxygen.

Jorgen

<![endif]--> <![endif]--> <![endif]--> I had an interesting point brought up. If the aircraft is experimental /exhibition (l-29) why would the foreign ejection seat specific chutes not be acceptable as long as they complied with military standards and were repacked every 6 months. Im not sure how to reseach this . These are not for jumping, but only for emergency egress with the seat. any ideas ?

Unless they are TSO'd I don't think anyone can legally pack them?

Stay seated and FLY THE PLANE.... It would be like putting ejection seats in a Cherockee 6.
I have a set of stock L-29 parachutes I'll make someone a good deal on.
