| The database is a unique bespoke system
designed to entice individuals and companies to join together for the
passage of all types of safety information, it is a real time up to
date database for all skydivers and riggers.
Safety notices are a fact of life, they are issued by manufactures, parachute associations or government agencies to keep skydivers updated and safe, as skydivers our equipment then gets upgraded or modified accordingly. |
|
However the system has many problems and the task of making sure our equipment is free from any safety notices. Safety notices / bulletins has proven to be a very difficult task and not surprisingly as there are over 979 safety notice sheets on parachute equipment. This is no longer a task that can be left to searching files which when placed on top of each otherare 10" high (250mm)
• We no longer have to rely on memory which has been the basis of every list previously used
• We no longer have to rely on a paper trail with information being lost
• New packers, riggers, instructors, etc can now learn from other peoples mistakes by using the safety database, equipment study guide
• One source means its the fastest and most reliable method to ensure a rig has no safety notices pending
• Easy to use and always up to date
• Totally unbiased international system, no borders or rules to prevent or delay passage of information
• Safety Information is available to view and print
• Real time passage of information direct from manufacturers, parachute associations to the skydiving industry with one click of a button
• E-mail support system, write in with any inquiry about either the safety notice database or your equipment concerns
