Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to determine meteorological factors for remote pilot aircraft systems (RPAS) beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) in compliance with the relevant regulatory requirements of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and national operating standardsIt includes determining aircraft meets requirements for BVLOS flight, obtaining and using current operational documents, preparing aircraft systems and monitoring during operations. It also includes determining operational requirements and programming navigation systems.This unit addresses aviation technical skill requirements (physical, mental and task-management abilities) related to route planning and navigation duties of flight crew and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex aviation operational environments.Operations are conducted as part of commercial and 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. |
