2 Page 2 of 2 Part 7: Special Dietary Requirements (if any) (Attach further information if necessary) Part 8 : Important General Information. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. 1. Course Fee: The cost of each course is currently $465.00, paid with the course application by cheque or money order made out to 327 Gliding Flight AAFC. This includes a non-refundable component of $45.00 which covers fixed costs, overheads and a contribution towards the future expansion and furtherment of AAFC Gliding. The remainder covers the cost of the actual flying, usually around 10 launches and 180 minutes of flying time. If the course is not completed, cadets may expect a partial refund. From time to time cadets may be allowed, time permitting, to undertake additional flying at their own expense. 2. Solo Flight: Typically a cadet will need to attend several courses before reaching the required standard for solo flying.. Solo flight is not permitted below15 years of age. Legally, a person flying solo must hold a 1, 3 or 12 month membership of the Gliding Federation of Australia (see below). 3. The Gliding Federation of Australia (GFA) is a self-regulated body operating under delegation from the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and is responsible for gliding operations within Australia. Pre-solo AAFC cadets are granted a special one-week GFA membership, the cost of which is paid for by 327 Flight. On the course on which they go solo, their membership must be upgraded to a 1, 3 or 12 months membership at the cadet s expense. Any cadet who is approaching a solo standard should bring additional money to the course to cover, as a minimum, a 1 or 3 month membership (which can only be taken once). Alternatively, and certainly for further solo flying at future courses, cadets should bring payment for 12 months GFA membership, preferably in the form of a cheque made out to GLIDING FEDERATION OF AUSTRALIA. Most cadets will find it simpler and more economical to take out the full 12 months membership when they first go solo. The current cost of GFA membership (revised each May) is set out in Part 9 of this document (see below). 4. Medical Standards: On the GFA membership application form (see attached), there is a medical declaration of fitness which must be signed. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO TRUTHFULLY SIGN THE DECLARATION, you may take the attached medical certificate to your doctor to be filled in to still allow you to fly. If you have truthfully signed the declaration you do not have to waste your money obtaining a certificate from your doctor, but still attach the blank Medical Certificate page to your application. If you are taking any prescribed or other medication, even temporarily, which may affect (1) your ability to fly in a glider or (2) your wellbeing when flying in a glider, you must let us know. If you are unsure of the effects of any medication, it is your responsibility to make your own enquiries in that regard. Part 9: Check List. Send all 5 pages of the Application Package.
