Visa requirements for Hungary for a prospective student pilot
Background: I have enrolled in a private pilot school to get flying credentials in Hungary. The training will take 5-6 months, and thereby I believe I'll need a visa to stay or enter/exit Hungary frequently as I'll be staying longer than 90 days per 180 day period.
Research: I've looked at various website such as:
- Hungary Schengen Visa Application Requirements
- Hungary / Hungary Guide / Visas & Permits / Short-stay visas
- Study in Hungary
Question: What visa would I require when I travel to Hungary to complete my pilot training (circa 5-6 months). I am already currently enrolled to start mid next year.
About me: I am an Australian national.

Well, you should first check at the Embassy of Hungary in Australia (https://canberra.mfa.gov.hu/eng), then contact your pilot school for further instructions and advice. You will probably need a Hungarian visa that allows stays over 90 days. Giving you are attending a special learning school, you could get a student-vise or working-vise maybe.
Or just try a few workarounds detailed here (https://www.nomadicmatt.com/travel-blogs/how-to-legally-stay-in-europe-for-more-than-90-days/), but I'm not sure they apply to your trip arrangements.
