Ok i have waited for the new part 61 to come through and i am still unable to find out what aircraft require a type. The last information book that was on the casa website which talked about type rating has now been taken down.
From what i could gather most single engine turbine aircraft and all multi engine turbine aircraft still require a type rating but i am unable to fined any regulation with aircraft list.
Does anyone have a list or know where i can find it?

Thanks for that
"Types of single-engine aeroplanes for which flight training and flight review are required for exercising the privileges of the single-engine aeroplane class rating"
The way i read this is there is no type rating you must have been checked in the specific aircraft with training and a flight test. Would it not have been easier to make it a type rating or am i missing something

I think the situation is that for every aircraft with a type rating, you have to do a flight review on it each time.

For something that's class rated but is specially noted as one that requires flight training, you have to do that training once to be able to fly it, but subsequent flight reviews in an aircraft of that class will cover it from then on.

Or something like that!

Civil Aviation Safety Authority - Aircraft type ratings (http://www.casa.gov.au/scripts/nc.dll?WCMS:STANDARD::pc=PC_101935)

On the right hand side click aircraft Type ratings and also down the bottom click aircraft ratings.
Says all multicrew aircraft require type ratings and some complex single pilot aircraft such as C550 B350/1900 and D228
