we all know we should not fly for at least 24 hours after diving. reason being bubbles in your system from diving could cause adverse conditions at altitude. now RGBM assumes there are ALREADY bubbles in the human system. if this is so then when you arrive at your dive destination and go for...

Speaking in hypotheticals, if dive X has a limit of Y do i have to be on the surface by Y or do I only need to start my ascent at Y? Also does Y include time needed for a safety stop.

********* UPDATE ********* Went back to the shop today. Guy hooked it up and inflated it. Sure enough thing deflated nearly entirely in approx 7-10 minutes. We checked the dump and inflator several times with no audible sounds of escaping air. They were more than happy to give me another...

Thank you all for the explanations regarding PPo2. I now understand its purpose regarding diving somewhat and do intend on taking a Nitrox class as soon as I can. And no PPO2 was not taught in my OW class. Dalton yes, PPO2 no. Now in part 2 of my question... Can someone compare 2 dives for...
