chester 0 #1 March 28, 2009 Hi guys! I posted this in the French section but no answers yet so I figured I would ask to more peoples. I have my CSPA solo license and 30 jumps so far, but right now I'm in Fort Rucker AL and I wouldn't mind taking advantage of a early summer weather (compare to Quebec) and get some jumps around here. Is my solo recognized here in the States and will I be able to jumps while I here. THX J-S ---- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hackish 8 #2 March 29, 2009 It is not recognised, but go talk to the DZ. I jumped in Deland on my Solo. They checked my logbook and asked a few questions that's it. I think I had about 35 jumps at the time. Someone else I know travelled down with 15 jumps and had to do a checkout jump with an AFF instructor. She was happy and gave the OK. Hope that helps. -Michael Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chester 0 #3 March 29, 2009 Thx man. I will check out the closest dz from here and get there asap :) I'm not supposed to jump while here since my bosses are not approving since I could have to quit training if I get injured but what they don't doesn't hurt them lol.

hcsvader 1 #4 March 29, 2009 Do you have medical insurance that covers skydiving injuries while you are there? Something to keep in mind.Have you seen my pants? it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream >:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kingbunky 3 #5 March 30, 2009 as long as his cspa membership is paid up, he's covered."Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart." MB4252 TDS699 killing threads since 2001 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hcsvader 1 #6 March 30, 2009 Quoteas long as his cspa membership is paid up, he's covered. Pretty sure CSPA membership only covers third party liability. I was talking about personal medical / health insurance incase of skydiving related injury.Have you seen my pants? it"s a rough life, Livin' the dream >:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As long as they don't know it. But if you lose the dice-toss and are injured - thus blowing your cover - you run the risk of getting fired. Are a few jumps worth losing your job over?

chester 0 #8 April 1, 2009 Nope can't really get fired, but if I get injured yes I could get in a bit of trouble if they find out it was doing something I didn't get the permission for. As for insurance well I well covered so that part is fine. J-S ---- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
