Not to talk down or belittle anyone, but read closely what the wording is: each occupant shall.... That means anyone on board pilot included. No exception is made to while solo, or receiving dual, or not in an approved acrobatic aircraft. The aircraft does not determine the requirement, the maneuver executed by the pilot. The parachute requirement extends to all occupants on board, not to all PASSENGERS. Also, when dealing with the Regs, please be very careful about looking at one paragraph in a given section. Often the subordinate paragraphs will refer back to the opening paragraph or even a preceding reg for part of its definition. Rarely does one reg stand alone.
