Zymurdoo 0 #1 December 10, 2010 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?Blue Skies, Soft Docks and Happy Landings!

skydived19006 4 #3 December 10, 2010 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. http://www.certificationunlimited.com/ MartinExperience is what you get when you thought you were going to get something else.

jimjumper 25 #4 December 11, 2010 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matthewcline 0 #5 December 11, 2010 Is it just for you? Or is the DZ looking for the Courses? Matt C-E T-I/EAn Instructors first concern is student safety. So, start being safe, first!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zymurdoo 0 #7 December 12, 2010 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! Blue Skies, Soft Docks and Happy Landings!

If they have enough interest they will run a course."It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
