Sled14 0 #1 December 15, 2005 Ok heres the deal, I have 5 more jumps until I can get my A license. I still need to take a packing class, but the guy said any time during the week is good. My question is, next Friday I am going back home to VA because we have break for school. I wont be able to jump during the break because I will be working and we are going on a vacation for a couple weeks. Do you guys think I should try to get my license before the break or wait until mid-Janurary to continue? Getting 5 jumps isn't a problem, last weekend I got 5 and could've gotten 6. I can stop by to take a packing class between finals. I dont want to take a long break (already did once for 2 months, got little rusty) but think I also shouldn't rush it. Plus, I still need 2 coach jumps so maybe one of those could by a recurrency jump after the break. Any suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nvanduyn 0 #3 December 15, 2005 The recurrency issue will be the only concern. According to the sim, it is recommended that you have a recurreny jump after 30 days of no skydiving. This is not a BSR, but just a recommendation, this might be something your home DZ may enforce. This same recommendation is 60 days for an A license holder. ------ -Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
