Aviation Trail Thanks Airborne Systems

We want to offer a special tribute and thanks to Airborne Systems for their support of the Parachute Museum recognition of the 100th Anniversary of the first freefall by Mr. Leslie Irvin. Airborne Systems is the company that Mr. Irvin founded to manufacture that first Model A freefall parachute rig and through these many years has become the industry leader in Military Parachute Design, Manufacturing and Training to countries all over the world. Their help and material support made this initial year of the Festival of Flight a huge success for Aviation Trail and the Parachute Museum. We appreciate all the fine hardworking folks at Airborne Systems. Check them out at: https://airborne-sys.com/home/
