Your licence works here.
Flying in New Zealand on an overseas licence is simpler than most pilots expect. We handle the guidance; you handle the flying.
From your licence to our left seat.
Follow the route. The paperwork is our leg to fly. You just file the plan.
Tell us your licence
FAA, CASA, EASA, UK CAA or another ICAO licence. We confirm your validation pathway and answer the tricky medical questions up front.
We send the checklist
Forms, medical requirements and timing, laid out step by step. Most guests tell us it was far simpler than they feared.
Paperwork before you fly
Submit ahead of travel and we liaise with the NZ CAA where needed. By the time you board your flight to Queenstown, it's done.
Take the left seat
Arrive, brief with your guide over coffee, and go flying. Day one ends with Southern Alps in your logbook.
The reward
A few forms. Then this.
Glaciers, fiords and high-country strips, all logged in your own hand. The paperwork takes days; the memories take over.
