If CASA issued Impulse a dispensation to operate the B1900 single pilot on night freight what rule or requirement did they issue the dispensation against.
Some pilots seem to think that, just because an aircraft is over 5700kg MTOW it must be crewed by 2 pilots and the Captain must have an ATPL.
For aircraft certified as single pilot, and for IFR ops, fitted with an autopilot as per CAO 20.18 this is not the case as far as I know.
If I have missed something I am happy to be corrected with the relevant reference.
Again I am not commenting on the requirements for RPT only charter and airwork.
