MAAA Proficiency Ratings
Boomerangs - Beginners Training Information page
MAAA proficiency ratings can only be assessed by a qualified MAAA Instructor. We have a number of qualified MAAA instructors at the WA Model Aircraft Sports Centre (WAMASC) who would be more than willing to help you achieve any of these proficiencies. It is important to note that Bronze Wings is the minimum level that you must achieve to be permitted to fly your aircraft solo at WAMASC.

The basic level of proficiency is Bronze Wings. This allows you to fly unsurpervised and be insured when flying within permitted areas. As you become more experienced and proficient, you may wish to move to Silver Wings (see below) and then on to Gold Wings. If you feel like you would like to put something back into aeromodelling, we would love to see you become a MAAA Instructor yourself.
As an intermediate step between
Powered Fixed Wing Bronze and Gold, WAMASC has introduced Powered Fixed Wing Silver Wings (

This rating is unique to WAMASC and is not officially recognised by the MAAA.
