What do y'all think?

I have mixed views. Firstly anything that brings BSAC into the 20th century is to be welcomed Second I really do not see that a diver restricted to 20m is going to get the best out of nitrox and therefore feel it would be better as a part of the Sport Diver course, where it makes a great deal of sense and is a very good idea.

The recent introduction of trimix courses is more the issue. This makes the current BSAC Nitrox/Adv Nx and Extended range courses mis-placed. As they are under review I will wait and see before sounding off (a rare moment - savour it )

I think one could make similar comments about the GUE tri-ox course if viewed in isolation. Seen as part of a continuum it makes sense. Maybe the BSAC changes will follow that path - lets hope so. We just need to crack the primary donation problem now
