Dang, that's not what I was hoping for. Oh well, I guess I can look forward to jumping everytime I am back in the US. Does the A license expire if you don't jump very often? If so, what is the timeline and amount of jumps you need to log to maintain a license?

Looks like I might be relocating to S. Korea. I haven't yet started my AFF classes, but before I found out that I'm going to Korea I was planning to start them. I do have a few months before I leave, so I could get my AFF courses done stateside between now and then. Is the class A license the international standard? Does anyone have any experience with DZ's near Seoul? I'd imagine the language barrier might be a small issue

Thanks for the input. I understand what you all mean, I agree getting all of my classes done at one place would definitely be ideal. I guess I'll have to wait to see if I can make that happen. LOL a few of my friends went tandem with Voodoo before it happened. It was pretty funny to see that after.

Hello. I'm originally from sunny southern California, staying in San Antonio, TX for the time being. I've done tandem skydiving 3 times in Camarillo, Lake Perris, and Taft. I've had the time of my life everytime. I've decided now is the time to finally take the next step and complete my AFF classes and gety A license. The nearest dropzone to me right now would be Skydive San Marcos. I have a few questions before I schedule my first AFF. Should all of the AFF classes be completed at the same dropzone? I have a hectic schedule, so I might have to complete a few of the AFF classes here in TX, and finish up the rest of my jumps when I go back to CA this summer. Someone mentioned to me that San Antonio does not have the best conditions for skydiving. He mentioned the atmospheric conditions here are not friendly to parachuting. Is there any truth to this?
