Question for instructors.
Lets say an OW student or maybe a DM candidate was working through a question sheet from one of the Dive agencies to pass a test.
One question is using the RPD to calculate an end pressure group after some bottom time at a depth.
The calculation means the diver is into the black area on the RPD after the dive.
As a follow up question to the first.
On the basis of the above I have two questions.
1)must you stop for 3 minutes at 5.0m/15 feet at the end of that dive?
2)Allowing you DID your 3.0m safety stop must you take a surface stop of 1 hour or more if a shorter stop appears to be available as an option ?
Clearly Im stupid because its that word MUST im hooked up on.
