Looking for a Local I/E on Arizona

[Zymurdoo 0]

I am looking to get my tandem rating and it appears that there is never anything advertised in AZ. Is there anyone available and interested in putting on a Coach and Tandem Rating course?

You should touch base with Jay Stokes. He'll come to you and run your course/s. He's even a resident of AZ, though I don't think that he spends much time there.

Experience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.

You could also call James Perez at Perris. I don't know off-hand how far he's willing to travel but he is a rated and very experienced coach and Tandem I/E. Call Perris and I'm sure they can provide contact info.

Is it just for you?
Or is the DZ looking for the Courses?

There is an IE that is moving to Eloy come spring I believe so your options are about to expand a lot.

Thanks for all of the helpful responses.

@ Glideangle - I have looked over the list and am in the process of making phone calls. I was hoping to recognize more names on the list.

@ Martin - Jay Stokes was my first thought but it appears he will be spending a great deal of time out of the country this winter.

@ Jimjumper - I was hoping to find someone closer to keep my costs down but thanks for the info. I may just have to take a Cali trip.

@ Matt - We have a few folks interested in the Coach rating at our local DZ. As for the Tandem Rating, it is just myself at this time. Unfortunately my schedule will not allow me to travel to an advertised course this winter/spring.

@ PhreeZone- I received a PM from an I/E that may be who you are referring to. Thanks for the tip.

With any luck I will be able to get the coach rating soon and hit the next Tandem course that fits the schedule.

Blue one!

Call Skydive Arizona direct, they have an I/E on staff. If they have enough interest they will run a course.
