tifino Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 hope those pumps are electric ones... otherwise it might have been 'CO' that took out the worker that was lugging the tanks around this could be an Apollo 13 scenario, rather than a hopeless 'Challenger' ending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the general term (Breathing Apparatus) rather than the specific (Self-Contained Underwater BA). My understanding is that the boys would most probably be fed their air from a leading diver via a "buddy-supply" (so not actually SC), so that the boys would not need to worry about checking their own air pressure levels or needing to remove their own tanks in the squeezes.

An astute comment, however will 1 driver / tank supply enough air for 2 for what is being told is a couple of long transits? (even with replacement tanks along the way) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(even with replacement tanks along the way) That could well depend on how fast the divers are using their air... See my very recent post on page 10 of the thread below (I'm not sure how to link directly to a specific post).. It also prompted my question a few day ago to more experience divers than I, about whether it was possible to change air tanks safely whilst fully submerged... ?
