Aug 9, 2016 at 14:09 comment added Isaac Kotlicky Your interpretation I find confusing. My understanding of the Rambam (per your translation) is that a single individual must perforce "tuck in" part of the curtain in order to hang it up buy himself. This piece forms the ohel a width of a tefach being affixed to a solid structure. The Gemara seems to clearly hold that an ohel supported solely by a human isn't a problem. This might put me at odds with your A.H., but it fits all the other sources and the parachute wouldn't be boneh.
