Deisel 38 #1 March 14, 2014 I'll be attending an examiners course soon, so I'm looking for information on the tandem examiner course (UPT). Can anyone share anything about the nature of the course? Info about the performance requirements would be ideal (testing, jumps, standards, etc). Also, recommendations about how to prepare would be helpful as well. Thanks. And yes, I've already spoken to UPT. They are a bit sluggish responding to emails. DThe brave may not live forever, but the timid never live at all.

parachutist 2 #2 March 15, 2014 I experienced that sluggish response from UPT a few months ago. Finally I e-mailed Jay Stokes and got a reply in 45 minutes. So I'd say try mostjumps at aol daht com (interpret to avoid the e-mail spiders) for all your answers from Jay, or if you want a fast answer from UPT directly, gotta hit the right channel: Tom at uptvector daht com Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomNoonan 1 #3 March 15, 2014 Hi guys, Yes, anyone that wants information on the UPT Sigma examiner course can email me at tom@uptvector.com or Jay Stokes at mostjumps@aol.com. I came on board with UPT just after the first of the year to work on the tandem training program and I am really excited about the energy that is being focused on all things tandem at 1645 Lexington Ave. This is going to be a busy year with tandems and I'm looking forward to working with all of the Vector/Sigma instructors and examiners out there.Namaste, Tom Noonan www.everest-skydive.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #4 March 15, 2014 Read all the UPT manuals before the course. Pack a few Sigmas before you go. lso read the Australian Parachute Federation's handbook for TIs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
