Unit of Competency AVIF0019 - Implement complex human factors in remote pilot aircraft systems beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS)
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to implement complex human factors in remote pilot aircraft systems (RPAS) beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) in compliance with relevant regulatory and legislative requirements.It includes the application of strategies to address human performance and communications skills needed to pilot effectively in BVLOS aviation environments. In addition, it includes maintaining situational awareness, assessing situations and making decisions, setting priorities, managing tasks and working with others in managing situational awareness.In addition, it includes recognising signs of personal fatigue, employing fatigue risk management practices to minimise fatigue, and identifying fatigue in others.This unit addresses non-technical skill requirements (mental, social and personal-management abilities) related to safety management duties of remote system operators and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex operational environments.Operations are conducted as part of commercial and military remote operated system activities across a variety of operational contexts within the Australian aviation industry.Work is performed independently or under limited supervision as a single operator or within a team environment.Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements are applicable to this unit.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Monitor and control remote pilot aircraft systems through aircraft instrumentation systems
  • Instrumentation necessary for the maintenance of stable flight are allocated to onboard automation systems
       
Element: Supervision and control of systems are monitored effectively and communicated to other team members
       
Element: Mode selections for automated systems are used appropriately accounting for own personal performance
       
Element: Communication is maintained with all flight personnel in accordance with organisation procedures and legislative requirements
       
Element: Information necessary to perform remote pilot aircraft system functions are interpreted and used for safe operation
       
Element: Information needed for pilot decision making is assessed for accuracy and applied to maintain command
       
Element: Situational awareness is maintained for the duration of the flight
       
Element: Perform pilot duties using machine-human interface
  • Controlled flight is maintained using automated systems as appropriate
       
Element: Onboard camera is used for flight control tasks where the camera is aligned with the longitudinal axis of the remote pilot aircraft system
       
Element: Control station is monitored and configured to assess the status of the remote pilot aircraft system to identify and respond to abnormal conditions
       
Element: Awareness is maintained by the pilot on the status of the control station power supply and back-up as necessary
       
Element: Remote pilot aircraft system is manoeuvred appropriately ensuring that obstacles and infrastructure are avoided
       
Element: Pilot vigilance is maintained fully during extended periods of low workload
       
Element: Control of the remote pilot aircraft system is transferred effectively between pilots during extended flight operations
       
Element: Threats and emergency situations are addressed following flight procedures ensuring the safety of people and infrastructure

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
