Hi All,
I'm new to Raa this also being my first post here!
I have a CPL making a VH Cougar no issue to fly legally. A friend of mine has recently commenced training towards the Raa certificate. Ultimately we would like to 'live the dream' and go halves in an aircraft. We had been looking at the Sierra 100/200 and similar 2 seat aircraft due my friend's lack of a PPL. However my recent reading leads me to believe a Raa cert holder with passenger and cross country tickets with min 20hr experience (min 5hr solo) can with very little cross training obtain an RPL with the nav endorsements coming across. Of course a medical and BAK etc would need to be completed.
The relevance to this thread being a Raa cert holder with minor expense/training to obtain an RPL can fly a VH 4 seat cougar with all seats occupied! Even in CTA with additional training. That should increase this aircraft's appeal.
This thread's been inactive for a while so this maybe common knowledge now or I maybe interpreting the regs incorrectly.
Cheers
Morgan Cougar Mk 2.

I've attached a screen shot as I was unable to copy the text.
Looks like the RPL holder only needs a Class 1 or 2 medical or another pilot able to operate the aircraft with a Class 1 or 2 medical is on board and you can carry as many people as a PPL/CPL holder.
