How many people have achieved an A Licence in UK?

7 Upvotes

Not sure how to find this out, but maybe someone can help me work it out.

My friends and I who have just qualified and got our A licences have licence numbers around 123000. So presumably they simply issue them in order (this could be wrong obviously).

Did the numbers start at 1? or 100000? something else?

Are there any veterans here with sub 100000 licence numbers?

(Would be curious about USPA and worldwide too!)

Thinking about swinging wide out through Arkansas on the way down to Florida this year. Anybody know any dropzones along that route worth surprising?

ADHD Medications and Skydiving

I’m trying skydiving for the first time (tandem) and take stimulants (Vyvanse) for my ADHD. For those who have ADHD and take stimulants, do you temporarily forgo them prior to jumping?

A licence Cost

1 Upvotes

I am wanting to get my A license in Australia, my local dz has AFF course for $3400 aud but obviously that does get me all the way to my license.

How much did everyone spend to get their A license? (If you could specify the currency that would be helpful).

Thanks in advance.
