Parachute Store coming back to life

Find out how work is progressing on the Parachute Store.

The parachute packing table now in place - ready for for active service, just as it would have been in the Second World War.

Parachute suspension points secured

After returning from active service the parachutes needed to be dryed and were hung from suspensions points from the ceiling.  These are now installed in our refurbished Parachute Store.
