  Tail Wheel Endorsement Course

  Are you ready for the next challenge in your flying? Upgrade your skills with a tail wheel endorsement!

  Not only will the course improve your landing skills, it also allows you to fly a wide variety of sport aircraft such as the Vans RV series and is even commercially relevant for those interested in a career in aerial agriculture!

  AAA’s comprehensive tail wheel endorsement course will give you the skills necessary to safely and proficiently operate “conventional undercarriage” aircraft. You will learn how to perform three-point and “wheeler” landings, as well as conduct normal, flapless and short-field take-offs and landings, culminating in the issue of a CASA Tail Wheel Undercarriage design feature endorsement.

  The AAA tail wheel endorsement course is currently carried out in an immaculate, late-model American Champion Scout – a light utility aircraft with a 180 hp Lycoming engine and constant speed propeller, so you gain CSU (MPPC) and tailwheel design feature endorsements concurrently.

  Although not required for tail wheel endorsement, it is recommended that course candidates have completed the Academy’s Advanced Handling Skills (AHS) course, as this will assist greatly in the ability to fly a consistent, stabilised approach – a critical component of good tail wheel technique!

  As with all AAA flight training courses, endorsement is subject to competency-based assessment and elements of the course may need to be repeated until the required competency is attained.

  AAA CPL Course

  Want the dream job of being a pilot? You need our Commercial Pilot Licence course!

  There are many pilot jobs available: airlines, corporate charter, flight instruction, joy flights, aerial agriculture & aero-medical transport to name a few. All have their different challenges and rewards. To start with however, you need to pass the CASA Commercial Pilot Licence flight test!

  AAA is a CASA-approved Part 141 training provider offering a 200 hour (non-integrated) CPL qualification. What this means for the new student is that after you have learned to fly (RPL course) and learned to navigate (PPL course), you now need to build pilot-in-command experience to satisfy the minimum experience requirements for the CPL.

  The AAA CPL course is designed to develop General Handling, Instrument Flight, Navigation & Emergency Handling skills to those befitting a professional aviator. Commercial scenarios are used to provide an element of realism and to encourage safe flight outcomes whilst under pressure.

  AAA recommends completing our AAA NVFR course as a pre-requisite – a handy tool for any commercial pilot in order to not be constrained by daylight hours. The instrument hours accrued on the NVFR course also go toward satisfying the instrument and total flight time required for the CPL.

  CPL training is competency-based and subject to an initial assessment flight to gauge the candidate’s current standard against the CASA Part 61 Manual of Standards. From there, the syllabus is adjusted to suit individual requirements. As such, it is difficult to provide an overall cost for the CPL, especially when the varied ways in which to build command time are considered.
