What I think is right/wrong is niether here nor there. I have argued it as I read it, but no doubt CASA has their own view on the matter and that is the one that counts.
It would possibly bring students if I could do their first 100 hours (or credit them) in an Ultralight, but I cannot do it in good conscience.
If those other schools can get away with it, there must be a CASA delegate willing to bet his house on it.
...I just promise you it just won't be me!
On the other hand, I have had RAAus students convert to GA and go to Bankstown to hire an aircraft. Even if they have a PPL (from an afilliated school no less
) they were told "oh well that'll be at least a 5-hour check flight process, 'cos you're ultralight trained"
THAT is prejudice
