CASA TO RA-AUS CONVERSION
RA-Aus is about enjoying the “freedom of flying”. It’s also a great way to fly for fun, at an affordable cost. Converting from a CASA licence to an RA-Aus Recreational Pilot Certificate (RPC) is pretty straight forward and most importantly it is a great opportunity to gain new skills. Most pilots holding a CASA licence generally undertake our tailwheel and/or bush flying course during this conversion.
- REQUIREMENTS FOR CONVERTING
- Be a financial member of Recreational Aviation Australia (RA-Aus).
- Complete a minimum of 5 hours flight time, which includes 1 hour solo, in an RA-Aus registered aircraft.
- Complete the RA-Aus converting pilot exam with a pass mark of 80% or higher.
- Complete a Flight Test with our Chief Flying Instructor.
- Share our passion for tailwheel and bush flying!
KEEPING IT CURRENT
Maintaining this licence is easy too. If you do an Aeroplane Flight Review (AFR) in a CASA registered single-engine aeroplane (with an MTOW <1500 kg) this will cover your RA-Aus Flight Review.
CONVERT TO THE RPC WITH OUR TAILWHEEL COURSE
TAILWHEEL ENDORSEMENT
The Tailwheel Endorsement is a great way to improve your general aircraft handling skills, in particular during take-off, landing and ground operations. As a tailwheel pilot, you will be better equipped to recognise undesired aircraft states which ultimately increases flight safety.
