I wasn't aware, though, that RAA registered aircraft were allowed to operate above A050 under normal circumstances. For some reason, I thought RAA ops were restricted to below A050 and OCTA.

You are correct, the limit is 5000' however if radio equipped and due rising ground or if the PIC requires to for safety reasons. bit of a cop out there but basically they should be below 5000.

I can only assume this was to keep non pressurised IFR above and so forth..... not sure why the rule came in but I bet somebody here will know.
