I beleive that an RPL is or about to be available for flying GA aircraft up to 
5700 kg with 2 POB and "relaxed" medical.

  Again why? And if you are correct that is disappointing.

      Citing from the CASA document entitled:

             Project FS 12/21

            "An applicant for a CASA glider pilot certificate must hold a 
current pilot certificate issued by the GFA or another recognised authority"

      (Bolding and italics are mine)

      I have a little green book entitled:


                                            FEDERATION AERONAUTIQUE
                                                    INTERNATIONALE



                                                    AUSTRALIA
                                                 (THE ROYAL FEDERATION OF
                                                              AERO CLUBS OF 
AUSTRALIA)



                                   GLIDING CERTIFICATE


      I cannot help but wonder whether that is compliant with the requirement 
above?

        Interesting.

        http://www.casa.gov.au/scripts/nc.dll?WCMS:PWA::pc=PC_100935

        Seems it won’t be much use to anyone unless you also have a CASA pilot 
licence.  Makes it expensive if all you want is a gliding licence.  There will 
also be a number of people flying currently who would not pass a Class 2 
medical.
