Check your SACAA pilot licence, view daily NOTAMs, calculate crosswind and density altitude, access weather and flight planning tools, AIP documents, ATNS emergency contacts and aviation law resources — all in one place.

SACAA Pilot Licence Check

Verify your South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) pilot licence status directly from the official SACAA Personnel Licensing portal. SA Pilot's PilotApp supports PPL (Private Pilot Licence), CPL (Commercial Pilot Licence), ATPL (Airline Transport Pilot Licence), instrument rating and instructor rating verification for pilots across South Africa including Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, Bloemfontein, Port Elizabeth and George.

Daily NOTAMs for South Africa

Why pilots keep coming back to PilotIQ

Every question explains all four options, not just the right one. Get it wrong and PilotIQ teaches you why that option was wrong. Still unsure? The Learn More section adds diagrams, videos and full explanations. The question bank is updated daily from student feedback, and you get both the original and the new SACAA question databases — which matters, because the real exams still use a large share of the older questions.
