You'd need a certified engine for starters to fly over anywhere buillt up, after that it should just be excess paperwork and inspections. Don't know if ASRA can do it?

Looking at the regs for the driver, there is provision for commercial gyro licenses. Again I'm not aware of anyone having one as we don't really have the OK for commercial operations, so some sort of contradiction on that. Is our current gyro license in line with a PPL?

I think that our current gyro license with xcountry would be more or less equiv. to ultralight with xcountry.

PPL is way more involved. For practical alone you need 20 hours to GFPT (passangers without xcountry) and another 20 hours min. navigation and met.

It's pretty crazy that they'll let you do the same thing (fly from nsw to wa for example) outside controled airspace with only like 12 hours training or whatever in an ultralight registered F/W A/C. Where as if the exact same A/C Type. eg. jabiru or gazelle is registered GA then you need PPL.
