REGULATION REFORM A guide to type-rated helicopters — includes list of ratings Learn about the type-rated helicopters that have been in effect since 1 September 2014 under new licensing rules. The full rules are contained in Part 61 of the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations. Who should read this information sheet? ›› Pilots. ›› Flight engineers. ›› Operators. ›› Flying training organisations. Which helicopters have type ratings? The following helicopters have type ratings: ›› all multi-crew certificated helicopters The official type ratings list is a Legislative Instrument that will be updated when new types are introduced, changes are made or ratings are no longer required. For more information refer to Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASR) 61.055 and 61.060. Some type ratings cover several models (variants), so the list includes requirements for differences training. See below for information on how to determine which type rating is required and whether differences training is needed to operate a different model. Flight crew type ratings Specific type ratings apply to flight crew operating particular aircraft. For example, a captain or co-pilot on an S61 must hold a pilot licence and an S61 type rating. ›› all multi-engine helicopters ›› specified single-pilot certificated helicopters that have performance, complexity or handling characteristics that warrant pilots completing a type specific training course. REGULATION REFORM | TRAINING AND LICENSING CIVIL AVIATION SAFETY AUTHORITY © 2014 How to use this guide 2.Do you need to complete differences training? 1. What type rating do you need? Find the type and model of helicopter you want to fly by looking at the first two columns in the table. The type rating you need to fly that model of helicopter is listed in the last column. Example 1 Type certificate holder Bell Helicopters Some models covered by a type rating require differences training (specified in column three using the abbreviation ‘DTR’). To fly a model that is listed in a different cell to a model that you were trained on for the grant of the type rating, you will need to undertake differences training if differences training is specified in column three. Differences training courses must be approved by CASA and conducted by a Part 142 operator. Example 2 Helicopter Differences models and training variants required? Bell 427 Bell 429 Type rating required BH427 BH429 The AS332 type rating covers the following models: AS332L, AS332 L2 and the EC225. In column three, the abbreviation ‘DTR’ is listed. If you have completed your type rate training on an AS332L, you are authorised to operate that model of helicopter, however, to operate one of the models included in the AS332 type rating (for example the EC225), you need to undertake differences training. Differences training is required because the abbreviation ‘DTR’ is in column three. The differences training must be done in the EC225.
