Course Details

The RPC has proven popular for purely recreational pilots who don't need the additional benefits and privileges of the PPL. With an RAAus issued certificate, you can conduct private flying but are restricted to 1 or 2 seat recreationally registered aircraft with a total take-off weight limit of 600kgs.

Currently RAAus is working with the Civil Aviation Authority of Australia (CASA) to implement changes to regulations that include the registration and and operation of aircraft with Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW) of up to 760 kg. The weight increase proposal provided by RAAus plans to introduce a Group G RPC for fixed-wing, 3 axis, single engine aircraft with an MTOW between 601 and 760 kg, regardless of stall speed. This is great news as this new increase to MTOW 760kg allows RPC candidates to undergo flight training in a whole new range of two-seater Light Aircraft that will fall under the new limit, like the Cessna 152 (which is also used for RPL and PPL training). In addition, this provides RPC candidates who undergo flight training in a Cessna 152 with an upgrade path to a full Private Pilot License by completing additional 20 hours of flight training, passing both the PPL ground exam and final check ride & oral exam.

A Recreational Pilot Certificate allows you to:

- Fly a two-seat recreational registered aircraft in uncontrolled airspace during daylight hours within 25 nautical miles of your departure aerodrome in Australia
- Medical standard is equivalent to that required for a motor vehicle license
- Take a passenger when endorsed to do so
- Fly in good weather conditions (VMC)

- Fly further in uncontrolled airspace with an additional Navigation (Cross-Country) endorsement.
