skippydiesel Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Just a bit overdue for my BFR - received a reminder in my RAA membership notice. All "good" have already contacted my local CFI and made a weather dependent booking however following statement from RAA has grabbed my attention; "Alternatively, if you completed a flight review in a single engine aircraft under 1500 kg, you may supply a copy of your logbook entry to our office for recognition." I dont recall having this as an alternative to doing a traditional BFR - would be interested in Forum comments on this option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yenn Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 You can use a GA BFR for RAAus reg. aircraft. That is what I do, plus you can do training in some things in GA and it counts as a BFR for both GA and RAAus. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippydiesel Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 Oh! so without actually saying it, it is referring to GA as the alternative BFR - same review different provider. Thanks Yenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djpacro Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 GA flight reviews require a form to CASA and written on the licence these days rather than a log book entry. It is not the training that counts as the flight review but the grant of specific endorsements etc - again a form to CASA and written on the licence. i.e. one needs a CASA licence - easy enough for anyone with an RPC to fill in the form to CASA and be given an RPL then go for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bennyboy320 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I too will be doing my BFR in a VH a/c in September, never had that warm & fuzzy feeling having to fly over tiger country around Cooly, yes I know it’s now Gold Coast these days ? & Coffs, when the transit lane or coastal option was so close yet legally not possible to use.
