and practical portion of the test with a Designated
Parachute Rigger Examiner (DPRE).
Under 14 CFR part 183, DPREs are master parachute
riggers who have attended an FAA course and are
authorized to conduct oral and practical tests for the
Administrator. In many cases, these individuals are full
time professionals who work in the parachute industry.
Upon the successful completion of the oral and practical
tests, in most cases, the DPRE will issue a temporary
parachute rigger certificate [Figure 1-5 on page 1-5] and
a seal symbol to the candidate. In some FSDO
jurisdictions, the district office may issue the temporary
certificate and/or seal symbol. The seal symbol consists
of three letters or numbers or a combination of
both.[Figure 1-6 on page 1-5] The seal symbol is very
important; it will serve as the identifying mark for that
individual parachute rigger, and is used to seal any
parachute that he/she packs.
ALTERNATE MEANS OF QUALIFYING FOR
A PARACHUTE RIGGER CERTIFICATE
Active duty military personnel and civilian personnel,
who work for the military as parachute riggers, may qualify
for a senior parachute rigger certificate under 14 CFR,
section 65.117, Special Certification Rule. If they meet
the practical requirements, they need only take a special
25-question test.
A senior parachute rigger applying for a master parachute
rigger certificate only needs to take the oral and
practical test. A person with 3 years’ experience as a
parachute rigger, but not holding a senior parachute rigger
certificate, must take both the knowledge test and the
To Whom It May Concern:
This is to certify that David D. Wolf
has packed in excess of 20 back-type
parachutes under my supervision in
accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions and all applicable FAA
directives. In addition, he has
demonstrated a sound knowledge of the
parachute, its construction, packing,
maintenance, and use, as well as
subparts A & F of 14 CFR part 65.
Sincerely Yours,
Joe Smith

oral and practical test. Any parachute rigger, senior or
master, who wishes to add additional ratings to his/her
certificate, needs to take only a practical test for the type
rating sought. No additional knowledge test is necessary.
RETESTING
If the applicant fails the knowledge test, he/she may
retake the test under the following conditions:
An applicant may apply for retesting by presenting
his/her failed test report-
(a) 30 days after the date the applicant failed the test;
or
(b) before 30 days have expired if the applicant presents
a signed statement from an airman holding
the certificate and rating sought by the applicant,
certifying that the airman has given the applicant
additional instruction in each of the subjects failed
and that the airman considers the applicant ready
for retesting.

It is also possible for candidates who pass the test, but
receive a marginal score, to retake the test with the
anticipation of getting a higher score. In this case, the candidate
must wait a minimum of 30 days from the date the
last test was taken to retake a passed test. Prior to retesting,
the individual must give his/her current airman test
report to the proctor. The most recent test taken will
reflect the official score.
RESPONSIBILITIES OF A
CERTIFICATED PARACHUTE RIGGER
Parachute riggers have a broad range of responsibilities
that include facilities and equipment, performance standards,
records, and use of their seal. The following
describes the responsibilities of a certificated parachute
rigger.

FACILITIES AND TOOLS
Issuance of a parachute rigger certificate is just the first
step toward becoming a professional parachute rigger. As
the uncertificated person gains experience packing, he or
she should also begin to acquire an inventory of tools and
manuals necessary to exercise the privileges of a certificate.
In compliance with 14 CFR, section 65.127, there
are several items necessary before the parachute rigger
can exercise the privileges of his/her certificate. One of
these requirements is a smooth table top that is at least 3
