Hey guys,

If your working as an instructor which has both a CASA G3 and RA-AUS Flight Instructor rating are these hours counted equally and can RA-AUS instructing hours be counted when apply for future airline jobs or ATPL hours etc. I am just asking as i'm planning on getting my instructor rating and a number of schools offer both ratings and a growing number of schools operate both VH and RA aircraft.

Thanks

That is a great question to ask a Flight instructor....
maybe time to dust off the reg’s and do some research as professional development.

My understanding is that hours are logged like normal as the law is hours in command of an aircraft not specifically a GA aircraft - however only 750 hours counts towards ATPL?

Also how to future employers such as Qlink etc look at people who did atleast some of there PIC time as an RA-Aus instructor compared to someone who did it all in GA reg aircraft in warriors/172s?

So long as the RA Aus aircraft is three axis control it can be logged and counted towards CASA licence requirements (non-intergrated CPL etc)

This discussion was occurring on another thread but I cant remember which one. CASA require 100 hours in a registered aircraft (i.e. VH) towards the 200 hours of CPL. So, RA hours count for all total hours but you still need the 100 VH hours minimum to get the piece of paper.
