samyueru 0 #1 December 4, 2003 I've aske da similar question before, but this is more relevant to my current situation..if anyone can help, that'd be awesome. I currently have 20 jumps and completed my static line progression. My Australian DZ gave me the purple card and everything to get my Australian A license. Problem is, with that and the membership fee, it's about $100+ and I'm leaving Australia to go back home in TWO weeks. Is it worth even getting the license? Would it make it easier to get my US A license? Since supposedly it's an "international" license, I would be able to jump in the US with it, right? Would I have to join the USPA if I was a member of the APF (I'm assuming I would) Or should I wait until I get back to the US and go to a dropzone there, show them my logbook, and get them to sign me off? And, btw, what would that invove? I might get up to 25 jumps while here, but I may not - it all depends on the weekend weather. I guess it'd be easier if I had 25, since that's the magic number for the A license back home. A lot of questions, I know! Help a wuffo out! Thanks!! -Alex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samyueru 0 #4 December 5, 2003 QuoteQuit making excuses and finish the APF license. Excuses? I already FINISHED my APF license. Regardless, I called both the USPA and APF and got a good answer. Apply for the Australian A license without continuing my membership (on a 3 month temporary one) and join the USPA back home. Then I'll get to use my A license without having to go through all the crap of going through the steps listed in the USPA A license with an instructor.
