I called them, told them I had not jumped in a few years, but have 600 jumps, Ex Instructor, D license, Display Licenses, Base Jumps,etc,, Said OK, just do a refreshers, Told them I have my own gear, its custom made for a big guy, which I am, Turned up Saturday, Checked my gear, all was good, reserve recently repacked, Pay near $300, do the class Sunday, Get ready to jump, no jump suit my size, I am 6-5 290 lbs, but had my own, then check my gear again, Oh, no AAD? Instructor now makes and excuse, "I don't feel comfortable going up without you having an AAD" You checked my gear yeaterday and said nothing about an AAD? AAD is not mandatory with Lic D, 600 jumps? , Excuse is,"you might get away from me up there?" What? I have 600 jumps, you most likely have 10 times more jumps and your frighten I might get away from you? Why didn't you tell me this before I wasted $300? you think this is a joke? Tells me to come back when I get an AAD, I am not getting an AAD! Did a 12 hours drive round trip, Oh they did try and get me to wear one of there rigs, but of course it didn't fit,DUH! that's why I have my own gear! total waste of time, did a charge back on my credit card at least.
