Thanks (multiple thanks)
Mad Jock / Intruder
Thanks...
I didn't my first post could be that badly misinturpreted given
my comments about "do we need to change something?"
Also that my scare didn't involve flying!
You'll find the BSAC,SSAC and PADI gudelines are all the same,a MINIMUM
of 24hrs, however with the advent of Dive computers these can give no fly
times FAR SHORTER than the 24, in my case mine (Aladin SmartZ, Nitek3 and Suunto Viper, if interested) can give shorter no fly intervals whilst still giving a longer total De-sat time.
Intruder, I'll assume you mis-read rather than get offended, I'm trying to find
out if there IS an issue out there that we need to hammer home during
training. I'm a PADI Instructor about to do a cross over instructor course, oh
and my original traing up to dive leader was BSAc so I've covered both sides.
Along with Adv Nitrox and Trimix. I (and my partner) always take the whole full day off the day BEFORE we fly back. That way as we do a lot of Deco we're well clear of any danger area.
Werbil:
Very interesting table, I haven't seen that before, I'm guessing it's a
commercial table, the De-sat / exposure timings are a LOT more
conservative than any sport tables (BSAC**, PADI, Buhlmann etc)
Rainboe:
Give it a try in the pool, when you get to the Nitrox courses you'll love the
O2 exposure calculations!
Thanks to everyone who's replied.
Has anyone reading actually had to divert, or, even covered it in a
brief?
Thanks again.
