What is this Scottish parachute mail?
This stamp is shown in the Ellington Zwisler (EZ) Rocket Mail Catalog Volume 2 on page 334, the stamp has a catalog number of EZ 132A1 and is used on a Great Britain rocket cover flown May 2, 1971 by the Leicester Space Society. While this particular stamp has an overprint "Leicester Space Society 1971", the same stamp is used on another Leicester Space Society flown cover (EZ 133C1) of May 23, 1971 and it does not have the overprint (your #088), however the stamp without the overprint does not have a catalog number.

Here's a cover with a similar stamp. [Rick Scott]
