CIVIL AVIATION SAFETY REGULATIONS 1998 - REG 61.060

Prescription of type ratings--single-pilot aircraft

             (1)  For paragraph 98(5A)(a) of the Act, CASA may, by legislative instrument, prescribe:

                     (a)  for a type of aircraft that is certificated for single-pilot operation--whether a single-pilot type rating is required; and

                     (b)  for aircraft for which single-pilot type ratings are required:

                              (i)  the type ratings that may be granted for single-pilot operation; and

                             (ii)  the aircraft models that are variants of each other; and

                            (iii)  in relation to each variant--the variants for which differences training is required; and

                     (c)  the type ratings for which the flight review or instrument proficiency check requirements may be met by completion of a single flight review; and

                     (d)  the type ratings for which the instrument proficiency check requirements may be met by completion of a single instrument proficiency check.

             (2)  However, CASA may prescribe that a single-pilot type rating is required for an aircraft only if satisfied that:

                     (a)  the complexity of the aircraft's systems; or

                     (b)  its performance or handling characteristics;

requires the provision of additional flight training to enable a person to pilot an aircraft of that type safely.
