Like it or not, the British SubAqua Clubs (BSAC) stance in the UK
is recommended max 50 meters, and has been for over 30 years..

A lot of people do it over here and in what some may consider difficult 
diving environments..

After all you cannot use Nitrox at this depth and very few british divers 
are Trimix trained ( I am ), there for they have been doing it for years. I 
would say as a generalisation that most people in britain would not consider 
using Trimix above 57m unless they are manually working..

I do not condone it, just tell it like it is ...

Tom
