Its a Fallschirmjäger RZ20 however the harness started life as an RZ16, very ver nice. Did you get it nice and cheap?

I haven't need to give any money

Former owner says to me he won't need it any more.
His family was kept it because of fabric. And I think if the fabric were in differet color they were used it to make some kind of garment.

Thats great news, are all the panels and lines present?

I found it from Finland.

Can you say is this parachute used by Pilots?

[David Fettes]

This parachute was NOT for pilots but for paratroopers. As said before the harness is a RZ20 (converted from a RZ16) and issued to the Fallschirmjäger. The labels also confirm this.
