Unit of Competency AVIY0036 - Operate at non-towered aerodromes
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to operate at non-towered aerodromes in compliance with relevant regulatory requirements of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and national operating standards.It includes conducting pre-flight preparations; taxiing aircraft; and applying aircraft departure, arrival and landing procedures.This unit addresses aviation technical skill requirements (physical, mental and task-management abilities) related to aircraft operational duties that complement flight crew non-technical skills and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex aviation operational environments.Operations are conducted as part of recreational, 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: Conduct pre-flight preparations
  • Relevant non-towered aerodrome operational information is extracted from authorised sources
       
Element: Information is interpreted to determine appropriate departure, arrival and landing requirements
       
Element: Special aerodrome procedures are identified as required
       
Element: Weather forecasts and local observations are checked for operating validity for flight planned duration
       
Element: Relevant radio and navigation aid frequencies are identified for use during all flight modes
       
Element: Taxi aircraft at a non-towered aerodrome or landing area
  • Non-towered aerodrome or landing area charts are used
       
Element: Local or area barometric pressure adjusted for sea level (QNH) is set
       
Element: Operating intentions are broadcast via radio telecommunications on appropriate frequency
       
Element: Local and area traffic information is obtained and interpreted
       
Element: Aircraft separation and lookout is maintained for other aircraft and for other aerodrome obstructions or hazards
       
Element: Appropriate aircraft lighting is selected during aircraft taxi
       
Element: Aerodrome ground markings are identified and appropriate action taken during aircraft taxi
       
Element: Aircraft is taxied or air transited to runway holding point
       
Element: Perform aircraft departure
  • Runway approaches are checked and cleared in all directions prior to entering runway
       
Element: Aircraft transponder code and appropriate mode are selected
       
Element: Aircraft position and operating intentions are broadcast on appropriate frequencies
       
Element: Aircraft separation is maintained during aircraft departure sequence
       
Element: Air service provider is advised of departure details as required
       
Element: Perform arrival and landing
  • Relevant non-towered aerodrome operational information is extracted from authorised sources prior to entering circuit area
       
Element: Aircraft separation and tracking tolerances are maintained
       
Element: Wind velocity and direction is assessed to determine appropriate circuit and landing direction
       
Element: Non-towered aerodrome runway or landing areas are confirmed as serviceable for landing sequence
       
Element: Runway areas and landing areas are checked and confirmed to be clear of landing obstacles and hazards
       
Element: Aircraft arrival sequence is conducted in accordance with manufacturer and organisational operating procedures
       
Element: Aircraft is landed and cleared from runway and landing areas
       
Element: Air service provider is advised of landing details as required

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.
