Our club encourages all RC pilots to work towards wings qualifications in their chosen discipline. At the very least we would expect our pilots to hold a Basic Power level of proficiency. There are qualified examiners in the club to assist new pilots in achieving their goals.

1. Aim
1.1. To provide certification of a basic proficiency level for Radio Control model pilots enabling them to operate unsupervised. Pilots achieving the required level are entitled to hold the MFNZ ‘Wings’ qualification, endorsed to one or more of 10 disciplines, plus 3 specialist qualifications.

1.2. To meet the requirements of Civil Aviation Rule 101.205 for flying within 4km of aerodromes.

1.3. To provide a way of demonstrating a higher level of skill by completing an advanced test, with ‘advanced’ certification.

The links below provide the necessary documentation for each discipline. There are 10 disciplines in all but we provide here the most common ones that NPMAC members strive for and hold. Links to the other disciplines are found on the Model Flying NZ site here.
