	Diving suit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Two divers, one wearing a 1 atmosphere diving suit and the other standard diving dress, preparing to explore the wreck of the RMS Lusitania, 1935.
		Standard diving dress is now obsolete but is historically interesting.
		A modern diving drysuit has an air inflation valve, which lets the diver control the buoyancy of the suit by injecting gas from the diving regulator to avoid squeeze during descent.

	Diving suit (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Modern diving suits can be divided into two kinds: ambient pressure or "soft" diving suits and "hard" or atmospheric pressure diving suits.
		Ambient pressure diving suits are a form of exposure protection used in scuba diving or free diving.
		Added buoyancy is a side effect of diving suits, which the diver must control underwater.

	CLASSIC DIVING BOOKS - Peter Keeble.
		Since taking up the sport of scuba diving in 1969, I have often wondered what it would be like to descend to the depths in a hard hat - standard dress that is. I have had the opportunity, and indeed it is still available.
		His vivid description of his first commercial dive is a classic in itself, a brilliant portrayal of his fears and expectations, a description so realistic that I started sweating at the thought of it.
		On the one hand we have the remarkable account of what it is like to dive in standard dress, and on the other, we have a superb description of the mechanics of marine salvage.

	Standard diving dress (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Standard diving dress consists of a copper, brass or bronze diving helmet, a umbilical cord to the surface supplied diving air pump, a canvas diving suit and lead boots.
		As the diver walks on the sea bed, the buoyancy of the helmet means the diver must wear enough lead, generally on the chest and boots, to weigh the diver down.
		It was commonly used for diving involving heavy work, until the 1960s when SCUBA equipment and saturation diving became more common.

		Personal water craft pose a hazard to divers, and sadly few operators do know what a dive flag is. Some believe it is turn marker.
		divers need to track this time interval for planning the next dive.\n; Surface marker buoy: a small inflated buoy that divers tow when underwater on drift dives to indicate to indicate their location to their boat\n; Time to fly: Divers must wait approx.

		In the 16th century people began to use diving bells supplied with air from the surface, probably the first effective means of staying under water for any length of time.
		This earliest form of diving is still practiced for both sport and commercial purposes (e.g., ama divers of Japan and Korea, pearl divers of the Tuamoto Archipe-lago).
		Each dive, limited by the individual's tolerance for breath-hold and the risk of drowning from hypoxia, is usually a minute or less.

		A normal diving mask and diving regulator prevent the diver from effectively communicating.
		Diving helments are mostly used with surface supplied diving: the helmet acts as a firm anchor point on the diver for the umbilical supplying the breathing gas.
		An alternative to the diving helmet that allows communication with the surface is the full face diving mask.

	More on Scuba Diving
		In short, scuba diving is an underwater activity practiced with the help of equipment worn by the diver which provides a supply of breathing gas allowing the diver to remain underwater for long periods.
		This type of SCUBA equipment is known as 'open circuit' because exhaled gas is lost to the environment.
		surface supplied diving - mainly used in professional diving for long or deep dives where an umbilical line provides the diver with breathing gas, warm water to heat diving suits and voice communications with the surface.
