Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

AVIY0062 - Control helicopter in normal flight

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Climb helicopter

  1. Adjustments are made to attitude and power to achieve an increase of altitude at normal, maximum rate (VY), maximum angle (VX) and cruise climb flight configurations from straight and level flight
  2. Appropriate altimeter settings are set
  3. Helicopter is maintained in balanced flight during adjustments to attitude and power
  4. Power is maintained as altitude increases
  5. Helicopter is levelled off from climb at nominated altitude
  6. Lookout is maintained during climb using a systematic scan technique at a rate determined by traffic density, visibility and terrain
  7. Situational awareness is maintained
