Yes 100 jumps is way to few and the rating too easy to obtain. Taking a student out of a plane just off AFF is taking someone's life into your hands. The student can barely keep themselves alive and you are going to ask someone so new to the sport to do this? Not to mention they try to ensure the student stays alive, film the jump for educational purposes, land their own parachute, and then watch the student land, all with only a 100 jumps? Lets do a little better taking care of our new jumpers and not allow them to get into this.
