wmw999 2,351 #2 February 6, 2021 It might have been (or still be) good to indicate how long ago training happened; when I trained, there were no follow-on programs, and there were no options beyond static line. And repeating 3 or more on a static line progression is very, very, different from repeating a jump on AFF progression. Wendy P. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MickPatch 55 #3 February 6, 2021 Wendy totally agree it would be better. When I drew up this survey I initially had many more levels in it with many more questions, trouble is it took about ten minutes to answer and I figured it needed to be under two minutes or it is too long.

The section on which training method do you employ - I answered as an Instructor, not as when I was a student and wondered why it wasn't a "Select all that apply." Then when I finished the survey figured out - you meant as a student. Apologies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baksteen 84 #6 February 15, 2021 The "number of rejumps" question is not really relevant for SL. You'll get there when you get there (freefall). You might need six jumps, you might need sixty jumps. Either is fine. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might need six jumps, you might need sixty jumps. Either is fine. Truth, even for AFF. 25 jumps minimum for an A license via AFF. Think I was at 34ish when I got mine. Seems most people repeat at least a few. OP, please post the results on here when available. I didn't want to give an email...

I thought the OP was driving at that with the question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
