The Difference Between RAAUS and CASA

In Australia, there are two governing bodies for aviation: the Royal Australian Air Sports (RAAUS) and the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA). RAAUS is responsible for governing recreational and sport aviation, while CASA is responsible for governing commercial and general aviation.

The main difference between RAAUS and CASA is the type of licenses that they issue. RAAUS issues recreational pilot licenses, while CASA issues private pilot licenses, commercial pilot licenses, and airline transport pilot licenses.

Recreational pilot licenses are designed for people who want to fly for fun. They allow you to fly single-engine airplanes, but you cannot fly for hire. Private pilot licenses are designed for people who want to fly for personal or business purposes. They allow you to fly single-engine airplanes, and you can fly for hire with certain restrictions. Commercial pilot licenses are designed for people who want to make a career in aviation. They allow you to fly multi-engine airplanes, and you can fly for hire without restrictions. Airline transport pilot licenses are the highest level of pilot license. They allow you to fly large commercial airplanes.

The different types of flight licences

There are many different types of flight licenses available, each with its own set of requirements. Here are some of the most common types of flight licenses:

  • Recreational Pilot License: This is the most basic type of flight license. It allows you to fly single-engine airplanes for fun.
 
  • Private Pilot License: This license allows you to fly single-engine airplanes for personal or business purposes.
 
  • Commercial Pilot License: This license allows you to fly multi-engine airplanes for hire.
 
  • Airline Transport Pilot License: This is the highest level of pilot license. It allows you to fly large commercial airplanes.
 

The requirements for each type of flight license vary depending on the governing body. However, in general, you will need to pass a written exam, a practical exam, and a flight review. You will also need to meet certain age and experience requirements.
