No hard and fast rule it seems.
Soar aviation got into trouble counting RAAus hours for their GA instructors and CASA hardened their stand to a flat “not allowed under any circumstance”.
Everyone knows that teaching straight and level in a GA plane takes much more skill than the same instructor doing the same lesson in a RAAus aircraft. 😖
