Online applications will open 9 February 2024
There's an online course to do via Aviationworx.
Let's see who gets the first one and how long it takes. I'll be there.
Pleasantly surprised Update Thurs 5pm 8th Feb.
The course is there, and I've just done it. It takes about an hour. Have not completed the assessment part just yet.
So congrats to CASA for actually coming through with the required course, on time.
Update - later on 8th Feb.
Completed the online quiz - carefully, I got 100%. Took just under an hour to go through it carefully.
It's not super complicated, it is 100% possible to get 100% first go. DON'T GUESS the answers, prove them to yourself, it is 100% possible.
Good luck folks. I shall apply for my Class 5 tomorrow. I will report back again on how it goes. I might even dial in at 12:01am! Nah- screw that.
UPDATE 9 FEB:
I HAVE MY CLASS 5 MEDICAL CERTIFICATE!
I honestly did not think I would ever see this, at all, let alone so early into this year.
Congrats to CASA, a small step in the right direction.
