Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to obtain a commercial pilot licence (aeroplane) in compliance with relevant regulatory requirements of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and national operating standards.It addresses the following competency standards in the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations (CASRs) Part 61 Manual of Standards Instrument:Common standardscommunicating in the aviation environmentperform pre- and post-flight actions and proceduresoperate aeronautical radiomanage fuelmanage passengers and cargonon-technical skills 1 (manage a safe flight)non-technical skills 2 (recognise, direct and manage threats and errors).Navigation and instrument flying standardsnavigate aircraftradio navigation en routefull instrument panel manoeuvreslimited instrument panel manoeuvresoperate at a controlled aerodromeoperate at non-towered aerodromesoperate in controlled airspaceoperate in Class G airspace.Aircraft rating standards: aeroplane categorycontrol aeroplane on the groundtake-off aeroplanecontrol aeroplane in normal flightland aeroplaneaeroplane advanced manoeuvresmanage abnormal situations – single engine aeroplanes.This unit addresses aviation non-technical skills and knowledge requirements (mental, social and personal-management abilities) for commercial pilots and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex aviation operational environments.This unit also addresses aviation technical skills and knowledge requirements (physical, mental and task-management abilities) related to commercial pilot duties and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex aviation operational environments.Operations are conducted as part of commercial or military aircraft activities across a variety of operational contexts within the Australian aviation industry.Work is performed independently or under limited supervision within a single-pilot or multi-crew 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.

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.
