stretch Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Ok first of all I like to introduce myself, I'm Aaron Lawton. got about 80 hours up in PA38 tomahawk and C-172 combined. With a GFPT. My last flight was 2 years ago and my last training flight, which was 4 years ago was my first solo nav. Now I want to get my RAA licience. I live in brisbane and wanna gt back into flying jut RAA. How many hours will I need to do Approx to get my RAA licience with navigation and passenger ratiing? Where is good to go around brisbane? Redcliff, cabouluture caloundra? Want to fly something that looks like a aeroplane to no gliders with motors on them for me, no offence . So looking at jabirue aircraft or something similiar to train in. So anyinfo and any help i can get will be great. THanks guys cant wait to meet you in the skies PS, im only small about 160cm or so. So something where i can reach the rudder pedals and see would also help
Ultralights Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 with 80 hrs already in the book, you should need no more than 5 hrs to get your certificate, 1 hr or less upper air work to get the feel of the new aircraft, a hour or 2 of circuits, and probably a nav. that should be it.
Guest drizzt1978 Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Just depends what you train in The J170 has XXXXed off a lot of GA guys cause the way it wants to float when it lands. But hell that's a decent amount of experience so you should just rip into it. But it is 5 hours solo for PAX endorsement so dont know what hours will transpose if that makes sense!!
