Dragartist. Do you remember the ADUX parachute used for one tons?
A parachute made from plastic sacking and bailer twine and bought as a use once and throw away disposable item.
In the late 80's I remember Boscombe being asked to look into why there had been a growing number of MALDROPS involving ADUX. It didn't take much detective work as a squint at the log cards showed canopies with 16 drops, 19 drops etc.
