Elements and Performance Criteria

1. Prepare for IMC arrival
   • Applicable aerodrome weather, airfield conditions and traffic information are obtained and applied
2. Descent/approach checks and briefs are completed
3. Approach and landing configurations are established appropriate for the runway and meteorological condition
4. Conduct IMC arrival to instrument approach point
   • Ground track is maintained to ensure subsequent instrument approach or traffic pattern can be flown, taking into account any obstructions and air traffic control (ATC) instructions
5. Obstacle clearance minima are maintained in accordance with aeronautical information publication (AIP) and/or ATC instructions
6. Existing wind conditions are verified making corrections for drift to maintain a precise ground track
7. Stabilised approach is maintained within specified airspeed and rate of descent tolerances
8. Approach point is intercepted in accordance with AIP requirements for commencing selected instrument approach
9. Conduct IMC arrival using a STAR
   • Current chart for STAR to be flown is selected and navigation systems are configured
10. Approach applicable to runway being used for landing is correctly executed
11. Aircraft is correctly manoeuvred from an inbound route to a fix at or near the destination aerodrome, using navigation aids and transition to an approach as instructed by ATC
12. Obstacle clearance minima are maintained in accordance with AIP and/or ATC instructions
13. Aircraft is manoeuvred within tolerance specified in AIP
14. ATC instructions amending STAR procedure are correctly implemented
