Yes, you are quite right. I was thinking of the PADI Deep Dive Speciality not the AOW.
I stand corrected, thank you.

I second Bracko, 30 meters (there are no feet in Egypt) is the max you will go. Did my AOW in the Red Sea.
Diving in the Rea Sea is the best! Enjoy!
Ok thanks everyone for the help.
I CANT WAIT until the start of my AOW Course !

there aren't feet in the world... even the US military use SI units!
I work in the Red Sea - it's awesome here!
Maximum depth for a 15 year old by PADI standards is 30 metres. I take all my students as close as it is possible to get to the maximum depth when they are doing the course. If you are going to learn to dive deep, I want the diver to experience what that is like.
Hope that helps

No feet in Egypt? Where do you put your fins?
I hate that the U.S. won't just switch. The original argument when we looked at it years ago (I was still in grade school) was that switching would be too expensive - everyone would need two sets of everything. Well, guess what - I have two sets of tools - one Metric and the other English. I love metric, but having to convert back and forth is where all the pain comes from. Just change!
Deep dives are fun, but short! You will soon realize what all that gas theory really means at depth.
