| Re: Minimising Rebreather Deaths / Fatalities All,
No reason to get personal here. RBW is a great platform for people to exchange views and information, and learn from each other. In order to make this work, there is Rule number one: Respect each others opinion.
In my opinion, the "horses for courses" argument definitely holds. But we may have different opinions about what that means: RBs only for deep and/or overhead dives vs. RBs to extend your NDL on shallower dives. Stuart's article attempts to help all of us to make our diving safer: deep, overhead, long, shallow, ...
If you would like to discuss the risks of RBs vs. OC, can I suggest you start another thread and keep this one to discuss the article itself, as requested by Stuart earlier. In fact, I'll go and create another thread & poll: Do you think Rebreather diving is inherently more dangerous than OC? |
