If you go to a dropzone, that does train new skydivers, the so called "Ausbildungsleiter" / training manager at this dropzone can grant you such a temporary licence. So what is typically involved in this grant of temp license? Does it matter what level of license, rating, experience the foreign jumper can demonstrate? (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me.

Haha! I can totally see this happening in some European countries. If the relative wind wouldn't pose a problem, I'm sure some people would jump with a cigarette in their mouth. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We banned tobacco from Rigging Innovations because we did not want new-production Talons to smell of stale cigarette smoke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
