Isfrael 0 #1 November 10, 2008 Hi, I live near Chicago, and the winter is coming around. I have relatives in Arizona, (close to Skydive Arizona) and I was thinking about spending a few weeks in Arizona during winter break to complete my A license training. The thing is, my home DZ uses the AFF program, Skydive Arizona uses the ASP. I've completed up to AFF 6 at my DZ, would this transfer to ASP? If so, where would it put me in there program? Also, if I don't jump at all before Winter break, I won't be current, so....? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I promise you they'll answer your questions!--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbiceps 0 #3 November 10, 2008 It depends. i tried this but couldnt transfer as my first dz uses rip cord rigs and the 2nd dz uses throw out gear. So they told me i had to start from scratch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, where would it put me in there program? They are basically the same thing. Most DZ's have some minor variation in their A license programs and call them by different names. But virtually all DZ's go by the USPA Integrated Student Program. I guarantee Arizona has experience with people coming from different programs (particularly from up north) in the winter and finishing their A license. The jumps you’ve made will count toward your license. First call AZ and talk to them. Second expect to hear something like, “Sure we can do that. We’ll need to review your log books when you get here and tailor the rest of your jumps to make are you meet all the learning objectives to be cleared for self supervision (finishing AFF) and that you meet all the requirements on the A license card. (Standard Coaching program)”"We've been looking for the enemy for some time now. We've finally found him. We're surrounded. That simplifies things."
