Good morning Gents ...

Dora-9's 700's are great examples ... we swapped a few eMail's last night on the topic.

That 264 lb aft limit ... I was just wondering what the average mil 'chap' would weigh in all the clobber ?

We used to say 180/200 lb for the 'body' ... but can't recall what was factored in for Bonedome, Life Preserver and Parachute ... can't remember ever being weighed full kitted
