George,
 
My most common ocean dive is 125 ft for 45 minutes, 2 hour surface, then
another 45 minutes bottom time.  Previously I was using AIR for bottom gas
and O2 for deco but this year I think I'm switching to a bottom mix of 21/25
(O2/He) then 50/50 and O2 for deco.  According to my deco program the run
times are basically the same so no extra time in the water.
 
I'd be interested in your gas choice as well as your profile.
 
Art.

Subject: Standard Deco Dive
 
What is the most common dive you guys are doing that we can start with as an
example? Give me the depth and time at the bottom. 
 
It is a lot easier to do the longer times due to the use of more gasses, but
I am suspicious that nobody but us does that, and you would be an idiot to
do it in the open ocean as opposed to a cave.
 
I can then run it and also show what happens when it is longer or shorter.
 
I personally think of dives as 100 ft, 150, 200, 250 or 300, and I use gas
for 1,2 or 3. The deco gas choice is dependent on the bottom time. While the
gases are standard, whether you use them all or not is operational and time
dependent. Below 100 is a special case, and beyond 350 is a special case.
