RPAS Pilot License (RPL) Course

Kishugu Unmanned Aerial Services started as a school that provides sector specific training but we’ve been getting more and more requests for RPL training as well.

We looked at what was available and streamlined the process so that students could get comfortable and learn to fly quicker and safer than any of our competitors can teach you.

One of the main reasons for our success is that we offer flight training more frequently and we are located centrally with training facilities in Cape Town, Johannesburg and Nelspruit.

Final phase – Sign Out

Your last practical training day is spent covering various flight manoeuvres that you could be tested on as well as anything else that could be included in the sign out. Once students are ready, a letter of recommendation from the Practical Flight Instructor will be prepared.

The final phase of testing is called the Sign Out. This is done on a different day with a SACAA registered Designated Flight Examiner (DFE). The exam itself covers an array of skills besides the flight exam and we prepare students for this prior to the sign out.
