What are the different Aircraft Ratings that Private Pilot License (PPL) holders can obtain?


Updated by CAAS

Aircraft ratings are qualifications that allow PPL holders to fly different types of aircraft. As a PPL holder, you may act as a Pilot-in-Command for the following aircraft groups:


  • Group A: Single-engine aircraft not exceeding 5,700 kg in maximum total mass

  • Group B: Multi-engine aircraft not exceeding 5,700 kg in maximum total mass

  • Group C: A specific type of aircraft with a maximum total mass that exceeds 5,700 kg

The specific aircraft rating (A, B or C) you hold will be specified on the PPL.
