FFAddict 0 #1 May 15, 2005 I was under the impression from speaking to instructors, other jumpers and my DZ shop that in the UK the only requirment for full face was 50 jumps and and A licence. But i was just looking through the BPA manual, for something else, and it seems to suggest that you must use an open face until you get your B Can anybody shed any light on this for me? stephen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

efex 0 #3 May 15, 2005 Offical rules are that you must be a B license in order to jump with a full face, due to restricted visibility. I do also however know of certain dropzones where they do 'bend' this rule. Warwick University Skydiving Club Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
