As Phill said you dont have to do the air breaks recomended by the VR3, but the key word you missed was experance. When I wrote that post (Sep 03) I had only done 6 dives on the VR3 and I was still running tables side by side to ceck it was working corectly.
I have now loged 36 dives with the deepest down to 102m on the VR3 and I quite litraly trust it with my life
I am frankley astonished that any one not limited by the doctrins of DIR or lack of free cash would do Trimix diving without one. They are great bits of kit.
Since writing that post I have made a concious decision to keep CNS down by lowering PP02 at max depth and using 80% for deco. If I do run air breaks I will add them to the total 6m stop time and run 5 in 15min profiles.
