When can I fly after diving?
Answer three questions about your dives and the time you came out of the water, and get the earliest time to fly: 12, 18 or 24 hours under the DAN guidelines and PADI's figure.12
Dive weight calculator
From your body weight, suit, cylinder and water, get a range of lead and a figure to start your buoyancy check with, based on DAN and PADI rules. If you already know your weight, work out the change when you switch suit, cylinder or water.34
Important: these tools do not replace dive training, your dive computer or a doctor.
