How do I gain a specific aircraft type rating on my licence?
To gain a specific type rating a pre-requisite is that you hold a full B1/B2 category or subcategory of authority (see previous question on the process for gaining a category or subcategory). You then need to: • Attend and pass an approved course relevant to the B1 or B2 category/subcategory you are seeking a rating for (approved type courses will include both theory and practical) or • If you have an overseas licence and rating – apply to CASA for recognition of the type rating.
