Thanks for the chuckle.

I've actually taken my chute as a carry-on numerous times without a peep
from the TSA types.  Go figure!

  I understand that wearing a parachute is a personal preference but until
  recently, I ALWAYS flew with a parachute.  Sure, its not required but
  its safe and I always wanted the maximum options available.
  
  However, recent changes in regulations has convinced me otherwise and
  I've decided it's just not worth it. The new heightened scrutiny makes
  it a pain to get through security and with the recent change in seating
  pitch on planes, especially Delta, the seats are so close together that
  I can't even fold the tray table down without bumping into the chute, so
  I just gave it up...though I do feel naked flying without it.
