Re: Certification madness or reasonable requirements?

I believe some of the agencies issue advanced certs that are unit specific.

For example my ANDI Level 3 Inspiration Cert Card says:

Equipment Inspiration
May use all.......using the rebreather system specified.

I also have a seperate ANDI Level 3 Kiss Cert Card that says:

Equipment Jetsam Kiss
May use all......using the rebreather system specified.

My understanding is that when I take my CCR Level 5 it would also be unit specific.

I am not sure about TDI and IANTD card and cert regarding specific units being indicated on the card or not. Maybe someone else can shed some light in that area.

My ANDI Cave Cert card which I did on CCR says nothing about a rebreather. However, it does say maximum of 30 minutes required deco stop time using 3 cylinders and 3 gases within a cave enviroment. I suspect that would make things alittle problematic for the resort checking my card. As I could be carrying 4 tanks....dil, o2, bo and deco. Ditto on my ANDI Technical Wreck card.

One problem is up to this point I did not know what the card would say until it was received. I have grown wiser.

Interesting... I would ask Joe R about it... I had a similar conversation with an IANTD instructor about this and my understanding was the opposite for the TRIMIX etc...
