StealthBoy 0 #1 March 24, 2011 I just completed my first AFF jump last week at Skydive Temple, best spring break ever! The instructors were excellent, and I really enjoyed the PAC750 ride too. I've got a few questions if anyone wants to help me out, thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StealthBoy 0 #3 March 25, 2011 Thanks for the welcome! I'm hoping to go again next weekend. I think I've got the licensing process mostly figured out, but are there any requirements to be fullfilled after the AFF jumps but before the A license? I think I read somewhere that I'll have to complete some relative work jumps or something but I'm not sure what that means. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StealthBoy 0 #5 March 25, 2011 Cool thanks. So after I finish all my AFF jumps, I just show up to my dropzone with the application and work down the page like a checklist until everything's complete? What is the average number of jumps to finish it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
faulknerwn 38 #6 March 27, 2011 Yep. We can give you the A license card when you're here. Once you get off AFF, you can jump solo or with a coach. You're going to need to do coach jumps to get signed off on a handful of the stuff on the A license proficiency card. The earliest you can get an A license is 25 jumps. Most people if they're working on the card consistently can get their license in 25 jumps. Some do require more (often the accuracy requirements). Its good to find a weekend with good weather and just come down and camp out for the weekend.. Get a bunch of jumps in at once.. Wendy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
