View Full Version : CASA licensing
I m going to convert my ICAO license to CASA.
Do I need to get the security ID ASICs (Aviation Security Identification Cards) or AVIDs (Aviation Identification) before I can do license conversion in Australia?
and Where can I find sources for IREX questions and answers??

Civil Aviation Safety Authority - Your ASIC questions answered (http://www.casa.gov.au/scripts/nc.dll?WCMS:STANDARD::pc=PC_90103#id3285750674)
At a minimum, all pilots 18 or over must undergo the background checks for an AVID. Only those pilots who require access to a secure area of a security controlled airport will need to undergo the more robust background checks for an ASIC.
Are pilots still allowed to fly without an ASIC? Yes. Pilots only need to have submitted an application for an AVID or an ASIC to operate an aircraft. The application will be processed and appropriate background checks undertaken prior to the AVID or ASIC being issued to an eligible pilot.
I found in the website that I need to have ASIC during the conversion.
How about the source of IREX questions and answers? where can I find them. any online sources??

Me again. There're free sample questions on CASA's website (no answers though) but ignore them at your peril ...
Civil Aviation Safety Authority - IREX Sample Examination Questions (http://www.casa.gov.au/scripts/nc.dll?WCMS:STANDARD::pc=PC_90060)
Alternatively, buy an on-line Practice Cyberexam from Advanced Flight Theory: IREX Practice CyberExams (http://www.aft.com.au/shopezi/category7_1.htm)
