bob.dino 1 #27 March 22, 2005 QuoteYeah, but then again, we dont have to have 5000 jumps to fly something more ellipitical than my house......so...yeah....things are different here. As Squeak said, that's got no relevance to Australia. The lowest level of organised coaching is known colloquially a "B-rel tutor". They teach basic RW techniques. To jump with a novice you must have a D licence (200 jumps) if the novice has their A licence, or you must have an E licence (500 jumps) if the student is not yet licenced. To be able to teach B-Rels at any Australian dropzone, you need an APF Tutor rating. This requires a D licence (200 jumps), a six month probationary period, and the passing of a set of exams. It's not normally suggested that you consider becoming a tutor until you've done 400 RW jumps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
