I know a lot of USPA dz's who have students do 1-3 tandems before AFF. Then all the AFF jumps are done with one instructor. Otherwise straight AFF usually uses 2 instructors. That's exactly what we do, 3 tandems, then 1 AFFI for all the levels. Steve beat me too it LOLNever give the gates up and always trust your rears!

Your one warning. You're attitude is what drives us 10, 20, 50, and 100 jump wonders to make bad decisions without consulting anyone of a considerably higher experience level. Many times when I tell someone with fewer jumps than me (of which there are many at our DZ lately) to go ask an instructor (the DZ.com motto) or someone with more knowledge in the matter, they relate a story when someone with your style of dialog has driven them away from the practice of inquiring before acting.
