Human v Unit Maintenance

**Simon TW** · 20th January 2006, 13:57

I'm making an effort to become fitter. When I was diving I was fit but still overweight.

Now I've given up smoking (I didn't really smoke a lot and only when I was in Egypt). I'm joining a gym and getting a personal trainer.

I'm also going to get a copy of that book that was mentioned.

Living and diving everyday in Egypt was the best excercise that I've ever had. I lost loads of weight and felt really fit and healthy.

Guys & Girls,

I'm pleased I made the comment originally about unit vs pilot maintenance. I strongly feel it has been an area often overlooked in accident analysis.

Working with Corporates - I do my fair share of 'entertaining' (Burn's Supper last night - very drunk - Kilt - 3am - messy) but I know I have to pay the piper for my diving. I exercise hard 4-5 times a week and I am pleased to see a lot of others doing the same and not putting heads in the sand.

For all those on the fitness trail - the end results - physically, mentally & divewise are well worth it ... and your giving our 'sport' the chance of a better reputation by reducing the possability of health related accidents.

Keep up the hard work.

All the best. My 2-penneth over !!
