Parachute Packing Record or Data Card. The second is the local DPRE. This private person is  empowered to conduct practical tests for the Administrator. As noted previously, each certificated parachute rigger is  issued a unique symbol with which to seal each parachute  once he or she packs it in a manner prescribed by the  manufacturer. A hand press, 4.75 pound tensile seal thread,  and a lead blank are used for this purpose. This ensures that  no one tampers with the parachute, and the owner knows  that it is ready for use.  A  Technical Standard Order (TSO) is issued by the  Administrator and is a minimum performance standard for  specified articles, such as parachutes. It is important that  the parachute rigger understand the TSO process and the  various levels of TSO approval under which parachutes  are manufactured. Every parachute rigger should read and  become familiar with the TSOs for parachutes, the 23 series  (C23b, C23c, C23d). This is important to the parachute rigger  in determining certification compatibility when he or she is  assembling approved components. 14 CFR part 21, subpart O—Technical Standard  Orders (TSO) Sealing the Parachute Regulatory Compliance 14 CFR part 39—Airworthiness Directives (ADs) 14 CFR part 1—Definitions In recent years, there have been a number of parachute ADs  issued by the Administrator. These ADs prescribe certain  actions to be taken by the parachute rigger in order to ensure  the safety and function of parachutes that have been found  in some manner to be defective. If the parachute rigger does  Under 14 CFR part 39, “No person may operate a product to  which an airworthiness directive applies except in accordance  with the requirements of that airworthiness directive.” The first is the ASI from the local FSDO or IFO. This  employee of the FAA is responsible for enforcement of the  Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) in aviation matters. The  ASI (airworthiness type) has jurisdictional responsibility in  such matters as compliance with the rules, approving data  for major repairs or alterations, investigation of accidents,  overseeing airshows and demo jumps, or any aviation- related matter.  This part provides legal definitions for words and abbreviations  under this title. One of the more important terms in this  part is that of the Administrator. The Administrator is the  administrative head of the FAA or any employee of the FAA  to whom authority has been delegated. The parachute rigger  is most likely to come in contact with two individuals who  may act on the Administrator’s behalf. This part specifically deals with Airworthiness Directives  (ADs). An AD is an amendment to the CFR. An AD must  be complied with before using an affected product. In the  case of a parachute, when: As with other airman certificates, there are additional parts of  14 CFR that are of direct concern to the parachute rigger in  addition to those already mentioned. It is important that the  parachute rigger have a thorough understanding of these parts  in order to avoid any inadvertent non-compliance: 14 CFR  parts 1, 21, 39, 91, 105, and 183. • An unsafe condition exists in a product. • The condition is likely to exist or develop in other  products of the same type or design.  1-8
