So I assume you add about 1 hour of deco time on top of your deco schedules? Who wouldn't want some safety?

We virtually know nothing about what "dives" have been done for that report. Furthermore, a deco dive does not equal saturation on slow tissues, the ones that will cause issues "16 hours later"Reductio ad absurdum argument. I expected better from you.
(bold, underline, italic added by me)somePeoplesGod:The current position is: wait AT LEAST 12 hours after a single No Decompression Dive and 24 hors after repetitive, multiple day or decompression diving.
DAN's recent results suggest that in the second case an interval of 17 hours will probably be safe, but the study is still going on and the official recommendation has not changed yet
"Albert Einstein is broadly credited with exclaiming 'The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results'."There you go always "trying to keep it real".
Your quote is NOT from the published DAN recommendation.From DAN's recommendation:

So, first case is the "single no deco dive", the second case is "repetitive, multiple day OR decompression diving". Then, the next sentence says "In the second case, 17h will probably be safe, but we won't make the claim yet".DAN:The current position is: wait AT LEAST 12 hours after a single No Decompression Dive and 24 hors after repetitive, multiple day or decompression diving.

when you say 'people' your including new divers? so you just run them through the AOW course and give them all the data and tell them to figure it out of themselves?So I assume you add about 1 hour of deco time on top of your deco schedules? Who wouldn't want some safety?

Your quotes are from an old page on the DAN Europe website, with info from 1998. They have been superceded by the 2002 workshop from which I quoted.My quote is from the webpage from DAN. The quote has nothing "bordering dishonesty". If you go to
DAN Europe - Flying after Diving
(that's the link you said rivers didn't read while citing it), you'll find exactly the sentence I quoted.
I did not put anything out of context.
So, they say what I quoted earlier:
So, first case is the "single no deco dive", the second case is "repetitive, multiple day OR decompression diving". Then, the next sentence says "In the second case, 17h will probably be safe, but we won't make the claim yet".
Please explain where I cited something about NDL to justify deco diving.
We always say, when in doubt there is no doubt.Your answer is surprisingly simple. It's just like we teach our experienced workers about worksite safety: if you find yourself stopping and having to carefully consider whether something is safe, that always means no, it isn't.
