SA ATP requirement
Hi all!
Can someone please show me a website where I can get hold of all the requirements for a SA ATP, under the new Part 61 law. I tried the CAA website but it seems to be down again.
Many thanks

I found this on RFAs website:
1500 hours of flight time, 500 hours must be PIC under supervision or 250 hours PIC of which 150 hours must be PIC under supervision.
200 hours must be cross-country flight time, 100 hours of which may be co-pilot.
75 hours must be instrument time, 100 hours night flight time.
Must have completed multi-crew co-operations training.
Testing is done on a 2-crew aircraft with a maximum certified mass of 5700 kgs.
But not sure how accurate this info is... Can someone please explain this PICUS to me, i need at least 150 hours, of which i havent even logged one hour!???!!

and
Note that you need 250 hours as PIC in total of which 150 may be PICUS. It is definately not a requirement. If you have the required 250 hours as PIC, you therefor do not need a single hour of PICUS.
You can also find a summary of the experience requirements on page 2 of the actual License Renewal form from SACAA, form number CA 61-05.02. Hope this helps.
