Jumperintheair 0 #1 September 16, 2004 I've seen thread's about the youngest Tandem I. on here before, but I was wondering, who is the youngest person to earn an AFF I rating? Anyone? Mike MC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanglesOZQld 0 #4 September 16, 2004 I would say it would be at the minimum allowed age just as when I was gaining my pilots licence there were plenty of guys and girls getting their ratings at the minimum age chasing their dream.

Skydive2 1 #5 September 16, 2004 I got my AFF rating 2 years ago, a month and a half after I turned 18. My buddy of mine Jamie, also got his rating at the same course, and he had turned 18 3 or 4 months prior. Lance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
