How would you manage to surface with 2 5liter stages (maybe I am running I know or thinking OC), also can it be done with a flodded loop so no SCR?

I hope I am not hijacking thread but maybe interesting to work out how much bailout you need!
Hi Pierre,

In essence with longer than 15-20 min bottom times, very difficult.

This is why I have an independent twin drop tank and stage a cylinder at the bottom of the shot.

I rely heavily on SCR and partial OC ascents to get home.

Cheers

Dave
