In order to clarify the situation with regard to RPAS Training in South Africa, and the recent developments resulting in an approved ROC having their Practical Training License suspended, Cranfield Aviation Training, operating under ATO CAA0018 are still approved as confirmed by the SACAA Testing Standards Department –  and accredited by the SACAA to carry out RPAS Ground School theoretical training.
Having completed our first Theory course recently, our students are awaiting confirmation as to where to do their practical training;  however Cranfield are in the process of applying to offer Practical Training in the near future.
