Who licenses pilots in New Zealand

Training in New Zealand is licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand, under Civil Aviation Rules Part 61.

The licences, in order

  1. 1.RPL — Recreational Pilot Licence
  2. 2.PPL — Private Pilot Licence
  3. 3.CPL — Commercial Pilot Licence
  4. 4.ATPL — Airline Transport Pilot Licence

The medical

A Class 2 medical certificate for private flying, or a Class 1 for commercial — from a CAA-approved medical examiner.

Rules change. Treat this as the shape of the system, not as advice — CAA New Zealand is the only source that binds.
