Scrapman1959 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 The rule of thirds is for scuba diving, one third of your air is used on your progress away from the dive boat, one third is used to get back to the ascent line to the boat and the last third is used for safety stop at 15 ft to release nitrogen gas from your tissues and any emergency you might encounter. That emergency is usually "where the hell did the line go that takes us back up to the boat". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug G. Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Are you maybe referring to the add 1/3 of the wind speed to your approach speed? Usually Vapproach x 1.3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug G. Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I think the usual formula is Vs x 1.4 = final approach speed without wind. Final approach + .3 x wind = approach with wind. Is this the understanding everyone else has? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
