Ingemar, Why should a diver with an advanced nitrox card NOT be qualified to do normoxic trimix? What would you rather have, that he was a deep air diver first? (Joke! ) I suppose 100 dives is a bit on the slim side. But some divers learn more in 100 dives than other learn in 500 or a thousand. At the end of the day, perhaps the trainee should do a training dive (or dives), accompanied by the instructor, so that the instructor can assess the trainees readiness for any kind of 'serious' technical diving. Does the IANTD provide its instructors with the possibility to 'SAY NO' to divers wanting to do a course, after they failed to perform on a check dive? Does GUE?
