From ICAO To CASA
Pilots who have trained overseas and obtained their Private Pilot Licence or Commercial Pilot Licence from ICAO-approved countries are able to have their licence (and ratings) converted to CASA. ICAO Pilot Licence Conversion course is designed to convert any ICAO professional licence and ratings to CASA professional licence. Converting your ICAO Licence to a CASA Licence requires both theory and practical flight training, and there may be additional requirements depending on your experience and licence status.
To Train & Fly In Australia
Converting your ICAO Pilot Licence will allow you to continue your flight training and work in Australia as a Pilot. In addition to learning more about CASA regulations and operations, during this course, we will familiarise you with the aircraft type, local procedures and flying in CASA-regulated airspace.

Our Graduate
Kenny Won“I was impressed with LTF’s professionalism and also the variety and quality of their aircraft fleet when I visited from overseas. I decided that wanted to have my FAA PPL converted so that I could continue my CPL training with LTF in Australia. I can now train at one of the busiest training airports in the Southern hemisphere, which gives me the confidence to fly anywhere.”
