class 5 is based on the raaus model i thought.

It is, however is a subtle, but extremely important difference.

The CASA Class 5 rules you to meet the "Unconditional Commercial AustRoads licence standard". RAAus requires you to meet the Private licence standard, which is more lenient in some areas.

I can't meet the C5 standard anymore due to a minor yet very-well-controlled neuro issue (but this issue is specifically called out as not meeting the AustRoads Commercial standard), but I can hold a Class 2 if I want to be butt-phucked by the cretins at AvMed every year with never-ending assessments and reports or I can go back to RAAus and fly until my heart is content. I have a Cat 1 Rail medical every year that's far more stringent than a CASA C2 and my Neurologist specifically wrote in her report "We have no issue for The KRviator to drive trains or fly" - and she is one of the leading experts on the condition on the planet! Good enough for CASA you'd think?? Nope.

So if you're thinking of going RAAus - CAsA (either for registration or RPC->RPL) bear this difference in mind and double-check you'll be okay.

Nope. You're confusing Basic Class 5 and Class 5

You're right, but with a typo. Basic C2 needs the AustRoads Commercial standard. Class 5 is Private. Got my wires crossed.

I still can't meet the Class 5 though, because the Cretins Against Sensible Aviation specifically call out my condition. I hope they never need to travel on the XPT though - there's a damn good chance I'll be up the front of the train, with no co-driver and no Automatic Train Protection to stop me blasting past a red signal into the asre-end of the train in front and killing everyone because of the medical condition that they say is such a threat to aviation safety I can't hold a C5....

Oh... Wait... My Rail medical is fine. Thank god for CASA and their "evidence-based approach to aviation safety"

Don't let it get you down ! .

' Autocide' ( USoA  ) is a new word & illegality  for suicide by automobile.

Don't we call them Cars Here. "Auto" means you don't have to manually change the Gears. Nev

Hi,

 

I did it a few years ago.

As above but $770. I seem to remember it was Darren Barnfield who signed it off. He will also ask if you want an exemption to still fly over built-up areas.

Why not? So I have that.

 

Cheers,

Neil

Yes you are right its Darren's baby. part of his MARAP program ..BUT BEWARE not all aircraft are able to be changed to E reg. You have to check and see if your 'plane is TYPE CERTIFIED. if so its not possible, under any cicumstances (ask me how I know ) it MAY be possible to get a MARAP to have the engine go "on condition" but dont hold your breath.

tecnams are type certified and can be run on condition even in flying schools.  

The aircraft my mate is changing to E 24 is a fly synthesis storch so I guess that must not be type certified as he was advised to go E24.
