skydiveoc 0 #4 November 3, 2007 just adhere to FAR's and you shouldnt need a gps. the suunto wrist watch GPS wasnt fast enough. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sid 1 #5 November 4, 2007 I "may" have seen a Tandem I (that's since retired) use a runner#s gps on a couple of dives. I think it was a "fore runner" maybe....... It worked well enough if he laid his hand on the students head under canopy...... but like was said earlier "don't do dat" Pete Draper, Just because my life plan is written on the back of a Hooter's Napkin, it's still a life plan.... right?

ast4711 0 #7 November 5, 2007 I can confirm this. Sometimes I use my Forerunner 301 and it is very useful if you need it... You could also use it to record your canopy descent and later view it in 3d with google earth. alex -- www.tandemmaster.net www.skydivegear.de Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
