Done over 30,000 pack jobs in real life. Should be no problem.

Just out of curiosity, where?

Hey Mongoose. We've lived in the UK, Spain and Portugal working in skydiving over the last 8 years. As a parachute packer it was not uncommon to do 1000 pack jobs a month during the busy season, sometimes more. These are however ram-air rigs with square canopies rather than the rounds used by some military and aviation groups although I'm sure it wouldn't take long to learn a new system. I still work in skydiving but thankfully not as a packer. That's a young man's game!
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.
