Flight experience for the CPL(H) is increased to 125 hours if the last 30 hours of the 105 hour syllabus is not completed within 90 days, and if the CPL(H) licence is completed on more than two aircraft types, which requires a minimum of 20 hours on each aircraft type.
REQUIREMENTS
- A minimum of 105 hours flight experience in accordance with the CASA-approved flight training syllabus.
- A Class 1 Aviation Medical Certificate.
- Demonstration of adequate aeronautical knowledge in seven helicopter-specific theoretical examinations.
- Successfully passing a practical flight examination.
