riggerrob 643 #2 November 28, 2004 The Swiss Parachute Federation used to host a rigger refresher training session every winter, with visiting lecturers from France, etc. Try asking Freddy Zbinden at La Couture. Freddy's first language is french, but he also speaks german and english. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zoter 0 #4 November 30, 2004 Contact Allan Hewitt at Skydive Spain (contact details at www.skydivespain.com) He's one of the most qualified riggers in the British Parachute Association, and a Senior Rigging Examiner for the BPA.......he does rigging courses from beginner to advanced....if his courses do not suit you, I bet he knows some other contacts in Europe he could recommend (Hes a really nice bloke as well.....)

Dazzle 0 #6 December 1, 2004 I've never though about this but is a rigging qualification in one country ok for use in any other country? I've always assumed that it would be but never really thought about it. Within the EU equality of professional qualifications should make them so but does it in practice. I'm sure many people have had reserves pack whislt at boogies etc but never considered any rules about who can rig where. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
