Would it be TOTALLY out of place to use a really fine chain for the hand rails? I just personally think it would look better.
You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

The norm appears to be rope as is the case even on the Jotika Victory, though what is used in reality needs some research, though I'm guessing it is rope.
Ultimately you can use whatever you think looks best in accordance with personal choice.

Thanks Tomick - historical acuracy is not THAT important so I don't mind going against the grain on minor details.

A chain would certainly give a sense of movement, you might also want to consider a blackening agent for the eyebolts
