APCO Mayday Reserve Parachutes

G-MD SLT is the new born superlight brother of our well known and respected G-MD. The G-MD SLT shares the same performance of G-MD SLT, but is much lighter (less than 2 kg.) and smaller pack volume. To achieve this goal, we used the latest hi-tech materials and cloth, including the use of PN-9 (20 Denier based high tenacity Nylon – same cloth used on Mayday SLT range).

G-MD SLT – fully certified to EN requirements. The G-MD SLT offers super fast, yet still soft deployment, making sure you land safely, unshocked while safly steering to a landing field chosen by you. The deployment sequence of G-MD SLT is designed to function with or without a cut-off system for the main wing, making it attractive to weekend pilots thanks to the simplicity of use, combined with the advantages of a steerable guiding rescue.

Important Sizing Notice

Please make sure that the reserve size you select is compatible with your harness reserve pocket/container.

We are happy to assist with reserve size selection, but it remains the buyer’s responsibility to confirm compatibility with their specific harness.

FlyMachine SA cannot accept returns, refunds, or exchanges if the reserve does not fit your harness pocket after purchase, and cannot be held responsible for incorrect size selection or harness compatibility issues.

Please check your harness manual or contact us before ordering if you are unsure.

Packed Size vs. Volume:
The volume is measured by water displacement, and represents the smallest recommended packed volume, or the volume of the smallest recommended container to be used for the reserve. The specified volume is therefore far lower than the calculated volume that would be derived from the specified measurements.
The Packed Size measurement represents the measurements of the factory packed, but not compressed reserve, ie. the max dimension for each axis, and in its specified deployment bag, as shipped from apco.
