Apco have been making the First starter harness for 20 years now, and the latest mark III incarnation now has quick-lock buckles and an improved webbing system.
It is designed for first flights and popular with schools, and so has been built to withstand the rigours of training, yet is light too at just a smidge over 2kg, with a large storage compartment making it ideal for hike-and-fly or bivouac adventures.
It also has a two-stage seat plate and is compatible with any externally mounted Mayday rescue system.
One size fits pilots from 160-190cm, using a zippered back expander, and it’s available in four colours.
