Speak to Dave. He will steer you in the right direction - small steps. There is also the value Dyson-Holland RPC Book. He also has a RPC to RPL conversion book & test exams.

Can I get some suggestion of which book I should read? Bob tait RPL or RPC? Are they similar??

Thanks Guy. I have visited Dave today. He is really a good guy. I enjoy flying with him.

Clamback and Hennessy is a GA school and will cost about the same as AAA. If you are at Hurstville you have the option of slipping down to Wollongong (Albion Park). If you are travelling by public transport you would have almost door to door travel as the airport is right next to Albion Park Station. I don't know about the GA costs there but being out of Sydney (or Camden) with no price gouging by the airport owner or a tower the cost may be lower. For RAA check out Bruce Robbins - Illawarra Recreational Flight Centre 0412 209 953 [email protected]. Bruce is very approachable and can discuss a range of options with you.Swapping from an RAA RPC to a GA RPL isn't just a matter of filling forms as you would need to do a GA Flight Review and may require additional training in a GA plane. It would be advisable to do your RPC, Radio, Passenger, Human Factors and Cross Country endorsments with RAA first as they can be carried over into a GA RPL at a much lower cost than picking them up in GA. A good RAA instructor will ensure that you are being well trained for a transition to GA.

 

In any case RAA planes are a delight to fly. They are the MX5s of aviation. Not too gutsy but fun to fly but without some of the Land Rover characteristics of some GA planes (IMHO) - nor a doubling of hire charges!!!

AAA is much higher.

Is there any disadvantage of RAA PRC than RPL if PPL is my following step?

Is the any website of Bruce Robbins - Illawarra Recreational Flight Centre? I cant find it on Google. Or I have to call him?

I dun think Basair still offers RPL course anymore as I cant find it on their website. But, many Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

I have sent an email to Dave and waiting for his reply. As I stay in hurstville, its a little bit far to me. So I found another school at the same time. learn-to-fly Have you guys fly here before? Thanks!

Actually, is there any difference of RAA or RPL? I know if you are RAA holder, you can just apply the RPL.

I have checked all the suggestion. Thank you guys.

I am sorry that I have a limited budget. AAA RPL course is too expensive for me.

I will keep looking. Thanks Guys!

Hi friends,

Im gonna enrol the course of RPL in Sydney. But Im still considering which aviation school should be chosen. What aircraft would be better? Wanna hear you guys suggestion. Thank you!
