Guest Crezzi Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 You don't need a radio at certain airfields and others you do see https://www.casa.gov.au/sites/g/files/net351/f/_assets/main/download/caaps/ops/166-1.pdfIf the aircraft is radio equiped you must use it ! So you will need to be able and qualified to be able to use it ! RAAus solo students can operate the radio under the supervision of the instructor - there is no requirement to have the radio endorsement or pass the radio exam prior to solo flight Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you show the exemption is stated ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkway Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 Some CFI may insist on this (& it might be a good idea) but its not an RAAus requirementCheers John At our airport it is a requirement. Also a medical is required even though I'm under ra aus, it's a requirement in our airspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Narrabeenrick Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 So I did fine in my exam, Narrambeen ricks information was bang on and covered everything nicely. Didn't realise I needed to do a radio exam as well before I could solo haha but I did fine in that too. Cheers for the help! Congrats' mate. Good stuff, sorry forgot about the radio exam. I had to get my medical as well. Found out I had a bladder infection and had to go back 3 bloody time before they would pass me :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrZoos Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 I have my pre solo test coming up, any recommendations on what to study up on? RAA Pre Solo Air Legislation – Pilot Practice Exams .com Pre-Solo Quiz #1 - Airborne Aviation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parkway Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 RAA Pre Solo Air Legislation – Pilot Practice Exams .comPre-Solo Quiz #1 - Airborne Aviation A bit late mate, I've got my licence now! But I did use that site and was pretty disappointed honestly. The exams were not any better than the free ones that are out there, and I expected there to be some kind of feedback to your wrong answers and some kind of study material for the money they charge. And when I contacted them saying I wasn't happy they just ignored me. Thumbs down for me I'm afraid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
