I heard the owner of this company Executive Chutes on the radio the other day. He said they were ready to go to market at the beginning of the year but they scrapped the idea 'cause they thought no one would buy one. Before 9-11 he was probably right. Price-$795.

A good friend of mine works for the parent company of this product, Destiny Powerchutes, in my tiny little town of Three Rivers, MI and he was saying they were concerned about marketing this because they did not want to appear to be capitalizing on the attacks, but they have been overwhelmed with requests even from their limited advertising. They just purchased a new building to increase their production capabilities.
