How can standards be argued between RAAus and GA? I recently spoke to a GA pilot who, "Calls the tower ahead to let them know he is coming."
So how does one explain this? I've been told here a PPL is far more superior to an RAAus Certificate according to some. Just as some have mentioned standards are not as well supervised. Rocks and glass houses come to mind once again.
Funnily enough the only items not contained in the RAAus Pilot Certificate syllabus that are in the PPL is 2 hours instrument flying and the optional CTA component. SHOCK HORROR! Day VFR syllabus people. RAA aircraft fly under the same rules as the general PPL holder, DAY VFR.
