meg education in Germany or Netherlands??

TSA12 · 23rd December 2007, 17:01

Hi,

I plan to buy a meg mid of next year.
Before I do this I would like to do a course to find out if the meg really fits to me.
Does anyone know where iam able to do a user course?
Best would be a location in Germany, but Netherlands or Belgium would also if the course will be in english or german

It would be great if you could support me with information...

THX a lot in advance...

You could try Pim van der Horst. He's the only one I know of in the Netherlands. On the plus side I could say that he's not blindly in love with his Meg wich I think is a good thing. www.pimstekdiving.nl isn't up now think but feel free to try later on.

Hello,

if you are planning a course midst of next year, you might contact Aldo Ferrucci in the South of France. He speaks fluent french and english and i did my megalodon hypoxic trimix course with him and can recommend him highly !! (I am from Belgium and am Dutch-speaking just like you)
He has rental units and spares and ... a warm and blue sea without tides...

have a look at bubnotbub.com or contact him at aldoferrucci@free.fr with my regards !!

Look here too:

trimix.net --> Tom Jaspers is a meg instructor (he dives a double Meg

)
Helmut Biechel in south germany (I think he is an ANDI meg instructor) --> deep wreck diving.com/de i am not sure.

I would do it with Helmut Biechl, or if you can do it in English
and are willing to go to Switzerland, Dave Cooper.

Michael,

I live in France right next to the German border as well as teaching in Geneva, so could conduct the course in Germany near Kehl/Strasbourg.

Cheers,

Dave Cooper.

Hi Dave,sound good!What do you think how much time would we need to do this course?I would have to travel to Kehl/Strasbourg, therefore the necessary time is important for me. Would the course be on weekend/weekends possible?How about the costs?Would be great if you could give me your idea?BRMichael

Michael,

Can be done over consecutive weekends but presence is needed on Friday night through until Sunday evening both weekends.

Price is 1250 Euros.

Feel free to PM me a phone number and I can call you.

Cheers,

Dave Cooper.
