What can I do with the Underwater Aviation license?
First, a story from Graham·"Several years ago, I was invited aboard a U.S. research ship with a team of scientists diving the WASP suit. The expedition was being led by Oceaneering Inc, a leading oil field dive company. The lead scientist, Bruce Robison, knowing that I was the designer/builder of the original WASP, offered to give me his dive slot for old time's sake. Before I could answer, the Oceaneering dive supervisor (who didn't know me) stated that since I didn't hold a pilot's license for the WASP, I could not dive. I admitted that I did not hold a current WASP license, nor did I ever have a WASP license. I did not, however admit, that I had designed WASP, carried out all the test dives, then trained and signed the first Oceaneering pilots licenses for WASP. It simply had never occurred to me to give myself a license.

I am giving myself license # 0001, and I will personally train and sign the first Deep Flight licenses."

As far as what can you do with your license — In the future, we hope to be able to provide access to the Deep Flight 502 for our licensees for diverse unique explorations, ranging from science to tv/film work, including shipwrecks, big animal, and other unique expeditions.
