A Parachute System is made up of three components. The Main Canopy, Reserve Canopy and Harness/Container Assembly. When choosing a Student Parachute System it is always a good idea to purchase all three major components from a single manufacturer. The three main components in the NAA STUDENT TRAINING PARACHUTE SYSTEM are all manufactured by North American Aerodynamics, Inc.. These components are designed to work together.
The NAA STUDENT TRAINING PARACHUTE SYSTEM is a complete parachute system with all of the components coming from a single manufacture. This system consists of the NAA EAGLE main canopy, the NAA EAGLE reserve canopy and the CENTAURUS STUDENT TRAINER container system.
All of the components are manufactured by North American Aerodynamics, Inc. They have been designed to work together as a complete system. Using a complete system from the same manufacture avoids the danger and problems of combining parts from different manufactures that have not been tested together. It also guarantees that you will not only have all of the necessary parts but you will have all of the correct parts.
