Wash up is that most AOC holders will need to hire more pilots in order to remain compliant with the 48.1 regs.

Interesting. I’ve heard a couple people mention training takes two days. Where are they getting that from?

CASA syllabus is only about 8 hours long, full day but that’s not two days.
And the regs don’t state that it needs to be annual. CAAP says the operator can stipulate the time period. Did their operator say recurrent is annual? And is their syllabus that big that it takes 2 days?
”define fatigue” - “this course”.

Stallie, your weapon could reach the ground from FL380, just put your mask on and open the window, completely legal under the new rules. Problem solved. You are accustomed to a bit of frostbite.

Never seen it written in the rules anywhere around the world where the PIC needs to occupy a window/control seat.
