Don't forget that CASA never introduced the proposed "Recreational Licence" that we all spoke of a few years ago. We are referring to an organisation that is responsible for administering Ultralights that just happened to change their name to "Recreational Aviation Australia" to release from the stigma associated with "ultralights" and their perceived safety or lack thereof.

Nothing has changed in terms of the rules and regs regarding ultralights of late, buy we are seeing many individuals attempting to grey the lines between the two disciplines for their own benefits that are not interested in persuing the GA avenue. It will be interesting to see what RAA does next to respond he the cries of the members that want more for less. I sit in both camps but clearly know the boundaries of each (subject to the outcome of this thread).
