Emergency Ascent Spreadsheet (xls)?

[on_two_wheels]

I know how to work math problems really well....doesn't mean I shouldn't own a calculator.

I said "if". Are you confirming for him that he can't work it out for himself?

You missed the joke, see Terry's profile:

Certification History
Pretty much everything from OW to DiveCon & Adv. Nitrox

You can whip that up in 10 minutes. It would be faster than looking for it

R..

It's not faster than looking for it if it was still here . . .

Not being one of the in-crowd on this thread I've been trying to work out what it was about. Now I understand I find it rather worrying. If you CAN'T easily work this out for yourself then IMO you shouldn't be diving until you have more training.

I think I can probably handle the calculations. They certainly aren't any worse than Advanced Nitrox, Deco, my DiveCon exam or the calculations in the fianancial software I write for my clients.

I had wanted to send the spreadsheet to a new diver that asked me the eternal question "Should I get a Spare Air?" because it very plainly shows where you would run out of air when doing an emergency ascent on a Spare Air, compared to a 19, 30 or whatever.

On the other hand, I wasn't interested enough to actually rewrite the spreadsheet, so instead, I made this graphic to stick on my deco bottles.

For those of you that are interested, this is a vector graphic and will cleanly scale to any size and can be printed on clear adhesive stock to stick on the "Spare Air" of your choice.

My buddy put them on his double 108's. Mine is on a 19 and a 40.

See Terry,you need some more training.
:rofl4:

Fer whut? The Divemaster will keep me safe!

(For anybody new who reads this thread, the above is a joke. Nobody can "keep you safe" all the time. Not the divemaster, not your instructor, not your buddy, not Superman. Some might be able to some of the time, but if you kick Darwin in the balls often enough, he will eventually get you.)

In any case, I've got some training coming up this winter. The cruise ship dives are the best rescue training on the planet. It's like being inside the SSI Stress and Rescue video.

Guess Terry can some calculations.

I beg to differ with the above statement, I'm reasonably certain Superman could in fact keep you safe all of the time.

I'm not so sure. He seems to be a sucker for a cute girl.

If Jessica Alba and I had spent the afternoon rolling in chum, then accidentally fell out of the dive boat directly over a shark feed, I'm pretty sure Cape-Boy and Jessica would be having dinner that evening someplace romantic, while I'd turn up on CDNN as another Shark Attack.

Especially if the chum contains kryptonite, you make an excellent point.
