Daizey 0 #1 October 21, 2002 I've been looking at the different programs and trying to decide which one I want to go with. Can anyone give me more info on Static Line, IAF, AFF, and/or any others? And also, which you think is the best and/or which you went with?? Any info would be great. Thanks! *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hooked 0 #2 October 21, 2002 There has been a lot of good discussions on these forums on this very issue. If you do a search, you should be able to find them.

drenaline 0 #3 October 21, 2002 This link is from training and safety forum, it will help, its a hot talk about what training. Everybody prefers a Tandem first jump, then go for the rest (AFF, SL). http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=243994;sb=post_latest_reply;so=ASC;forum_view=forum_view_collapsed;;page=unread#unread I did my first jump with S/L cause its the only thing we do here, but am sure that I would of chicken out if I would of done AFF.

Daizey 0 #4 October 21, 2002 Thanks a lot! Now I have one more question...what is the difference between AFF and IAF?? *daizey* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drenaline 0 #5 October 21, 2002 IAF or IAD? if its IAD (instructor assisted deployment) is like a SL but instead of the line, the instructor is the one who pulls out the Pilot chute. I think. and AFF is when you jump from altitude (10000 or more feets) with an instructor and a jump master (one on each side holding you) and then open your parachute when you reach 5000 feets.

drenaline 0 #7 October 21, 2002 I really have no idea. Search the safety and training forums and this one, it must be somewhere hidden. HISPA 21 www.panamafreefall.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jtval 0 #9 October 21, 2002 hey Cuz, I believe IAF is basically AFF with two tandems built into the program. This allows for a little canopy control before you throw your self at the ground! have fun save your $$ Ill see you in the sky!My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
