Converting of foreign ATPL(H) to CASA ATPL(H)

Postby RSA_Pilot » Thu Sep 6 2018, 06:01

Good Morning,

I am a South African pilot currently in the process of immigrating to Australia, I would like to convert my SA CAA ATPL(H) to a CASA ATPL(H).

could someone please help me with the best place to get study material for the exams and going forward with the process of converting my license? I have come across the website www.aft.com.au which seems good.


any guidance would be appreciated.

kind regards

AFT you mentioned, is really good for the theory component .

The conversion exam requires passes in the ATPL Human Factors exam (AHUF) and the ATPL overseas conversion exam (AOSH). The AOSH examination is a 3 hour exam requiring an 80% pass mark which covers the following unit codes for knowledge standards in Schedule 3 of the MOS -CLWH, AALW and CMET.


To sit the exams , only available in Australia ..

https://aslau.aspeqexams.com for bookings , test centres around Australia.

To convert your Instrument Rating (theory)...

or

Thats the theory out the way...

Then finding a flight school....

Not in any order....

www.heliwest.com.au

www.phs.com.au

www.kestrelaviation.com.au

www.rotorlift.com.au


You will need an ASIC card

Good Luck

Then a MCC course, ATPL training then ATPL flight test.

You might have the MCC portion recognised from your SA ATPL.

Thank you very much for the in-depth reply,
I currently do have a valid MCC certificate which I am hoping they will recognize.

I appreciate the help !

Kind regards

I did hear that LifeFlight in Brisbane has an ATPL H FER.

You can't do ATPL "internally" as it is a new licence issue

ATPL tests are being done “internally “ (for want of a better word) by the offshore companies.

FBD

Return to “CASA”
