Archerfield Airport better than others?
Archerfield is a much larger airport with a control tower and has two pairs of parallel runways. Archerfield is widely used for flying training and charter flight thus exposing the student to all of the operational challenges of flying. Archerfield is a busy but very well organised airport that will prepare you well for safe flying in the Brisbane area.
Are the medical standards strict? Can I wear glasses?
You have to be healthy. Vision can be correctable with glasses. Medical standards vary depending on whether you want to fly commercially or just for recreation. However, the requirement for obtaining a GFPT or a PPL licence is a Class II medical certificate issues by CASA.
What does the licence give me? What do these licences allow me to do?
A licence allows you to fly an aeroplane on your own. A private pilot licence allows you to fly anywhere in Australia by day and in good weather conditions with passengers on the aircraft types you are endorsed on.
