Do RAAus Intructor Hours count towards a CASA grade 2 instructor rating?
Do RAAus ab-initio hours count towards grade 2 and grade 1 instructor ratings?
I'm under the assumption that they don't but I've been told by some people they do and by others they count as half.

Actually, they can count towards grade 2 and 1. To achieve this though you must be working for school that teaches both RAA and GA under the same CASA approved syllabus. RAA will accept CASA syllabus too. Needless to say you will also be doing both. Probably also need CASA permission/dispensation these days. Had it in a previous school i was CFI at. No hard and fast rule it seems.

Everyone knows that teaching straight and level in a GA plane takes much more skill than the same instructor doing the same lesson in a RAAus aircraft. 😖
Best bet is to contact CASA here: Flight crew licensing enquiries | Civil Aviation Safety Authority (casa.gov.au)
You are going to get different answers, they are all opinions, the one that matters is the regulators.
