Why do you want that?

 

one of my friends intend to do it and I am ciurious about .  

Here in Iran we also use metric system and abviously people are familiar with . 

the main problem is we train skydiving students based on USPA's SIM , and SIM uses feet .

it is really confusing not only for learners also for instructors .

Pretty sure its a function of what license they hold.

So a coach with a B needs it after 90 days. A TI with a D needs it after 180 days.

That's just for jumping, though.

There are other currency rules for different instructors, and them acting as an instructor (or a coach, which is a type of instructor). I believe that's in the IRM, not the SIM.

 

thank you 

and could you possibly please explain what is the recurrence jump include for B , C & D license holders ?

According to USPA's SIM ,

- A license holders who not jumping for 60 days 

- B license holders who not jumping for 90 days

- C & D license holders who not jumping for 180 days 

 are uncurrent skydivers and need to do recurrency jump . 

I would like to know about any rules and recommendation for coaches and instructors who not jumping for 180 days ?   

is there any reference and / or regulation about hot air balloon jump ?

also any recommendation on these jumps is highly appreciated .

one of the condition to keep instructor rating current is to attend a USPA rating renewal seminar .

my question is that :

 what is this seminar ? where does this seminar held and how can take part in ?

When setting on a group jump to exit the plane. Floaters climb out of the door, and hanging on to the door frame or bar turn around to face back into the plane. Divers are in the plane facing the floaters. On the exit count the floaters let go and fall away from the plane, the divers dive out toward the floaters. 

Thank you , very helpful .

what is the different between Dive exit and  Float exit ?

Hi friend 

would you please help me know if a 10ft (3 m) wind tunnel is suitable to practice and learn skills which is necessary  for AFF instructor course ?

is it possible to take part in AFF instructor course and Tandem instructor course back to back ( for example during 10 days) ?

or it should be some gap time between two courses ?
