Fly yourself anywhere in Australia and the world!

A Private Pilots Licence PPL issued by CASA is an internationally recognised pilots licence. The goal of many, a PPL is your ticket to travel as you wish, when you wish across Australia.

The culmination of a lot of hard work and personal sacrifice, this licence can be achieved from scratch using a CASA registered aeroplane right from the start or you can gain it by starting out with a RPC, then moving to a RPL then with some more training and an exam followed by a flight test, gain your PPL. Either way, this licence is achievable and Ariel aviation hold all the necessary approvals to take you from total beginner through to this aviation training milestone.

A suggested route to a PPL

The route to this licence can begin in two different ways. You can commence your training in a CASA registered aircraft and complete all training up to the issue of this licence without even gaining a RPC or RPL.

That said, an equally valid alternative that is somewhat less expensive is to begin with a RPC and a navigation endorsement, then gain a RPL and a controlled airspace endorsement then sit an exam and pass a flight test (some additional training may be required) and you have a private pilots licence that can fly you pretty well anywhere in the world

No Limitations

A Private Pilots Licence allows you to fly any CASA registered aeroplane from a small trainer right up to something as big as an Airbus 380! As issued it allows flight in pretty well any single engined aeroplane you can name. With a multi engine endorsement you can fly most twin engined aircraft and with a type endorsement you can fly pretty well any aeroplane.

A PPL is a big achievement

No matter how you go about gaining your PPL we recognise it as a big achievement. In fact no one but another pilot knows what it has taken you got get this far. We specialise in helping you gain your PPL no matter where you learned to fly or how you got there. We recognise all hours that can contribute to this licence and have helped glider pilots, helicopter pilots and ultralight pilots make the step as well as helping you right from the beginning in our Foxbat or Liberty aircraft.
