Description
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.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Monitor operations
  • Operationally useful weather observations are gathered accurately
  • Issues with weather observations are identified and reported accurately to relevant personnel
  • Meteorological environment is monitored during operations
       
Element: Obtain and use current operational meteorological documents
  • Operational meteoritical documents applicable to flight are obtained and checked for currency
       
Element: Applicable information contained in documents for flight planning and management is interpreted and applied
       
Element: Determine aircraft meets requirements for BVLOS operations
  • Aircraft requirements for BVLOS operations are determined and meet identified conditions
       
Element: Flight and navigation instruments, minimum electrical lighting, navigation equipment and any other requirements fitted to aircraft are checked to ensure they are suitable and acceptable for BVLOS operations
       
Element: Duration of flight is determined
       
Element: Total fuel/power requirements are calculated to ensure sufficient flight duration for the task
  • Operationally useful weather observations are gathered accurately
       
Element: Issues with weather observations are identified and reported accurately to relevant personnel
       
Element: Meteorological environment is monitored during operations

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.
