Cozumel Incident 9/4/11

[ianr33]

Most technical agencies advocate 1/6s in overhead environments on single tanks.

Reference please.

Reference please.

Mis-type on my part. Sorry. 1/6 of doubles in overhead (at least for 'intro' variety tech classes). I don't type well from my phone.

My point was for even beginning tech divers (not saying they were) the gas plan which results in 80 cu ft of gas was out-of-line. Didn't state that clearly originally.
