i think you have to do 3 tandem then after that you can jump by yourself. At least that's what i was told at skydive chicago. I got 2 under my belt and would love to go again but no time or money right now
edit: i was told that in 2002 or so either i'm retarded or it changed (prob retarded) but i just found this so ^^ my previous statement is wrong..... In order to receive a skydiving license, you must complete the AFF training program which consists of 6 skydives, then make 12-15 more skydives as you learn the finer points. When you have met basic requirements and have made 20-25 skydives, you will take a CSPA test and upon passing it receive your "SOLO" license. There is also an “A”, "B", "C", and a "D" license and other ratings you can work toward after you receive your "SOLO" certificate, however, you can skydive at any drop zone worldwide with only an "A" license. You will be able to make solo skydives before you complete your "A" license requirements, but not until you've completed the AFF training program.
