• said chambers are formed by a plurality of substantially flat fabric sections that are disposed one above the other and are interconnected at outer edges thereof via an encircling seam, thus forming multiple chambers, with one outer and respective interior ones of said fabric sections being provided with a respective central opening, through which opening said parachute is inserted into said chambers of said casing and through which said parachute is released after actuation, with said parachute canopy, said shroud lines and said carrying harness being placed into different ones of said chambers, with said opening in said outer one of said fabric sections remaining open during a packed state of said parachute in said casing.

A casing for a parachute that is intended for setting down a load, with said parachute having a parachute canopy, shroud lines, and a carrying harness attached thereto for the load, said casing comprising:

• two substantially flat fabric sections that are disposed one above the other and are interconnected at outer edges thereof via an encircling seam, thereby forming between said fabric sections one chamber, with one of said fabric sections being provided with a central opening through which said parachute is packed into said chamber and through which said parachute is released after actuation, with said opening remaining open in a packed state of said parachute.
