Microlight Regulations in Zimbabwe

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The regulatory body here is the Zimbabwe Microlight Aircraft Association. The ZMAA is self regulating but liases with the Director Of Civil Aviation. At present all operators of Microlights/ Ultralites are required to be members. The licencing requires us to hold a Radio Operators Licence, this is a standard test here and apllies to all types of pilots licence, we also have t have an annual medical, and we are required to be checked out by an authorised instructor from the association. All pretty basic.

We are not allowed to fly above 1000' agl or 6000' asl which ever is the higher unless we have FIC approval, which is seldom denied.
