Operate aircraft using aircraft flight instruments

Formats and tools

Unit Description
Reconstruct the unit from the xml and display it as an HTML page.
Assessment Tool
an assessor resource that builds a framework for writing an assessment tool
Assessment Template
generate a spreadsheet for marking this unit in a classroom environment. Put student names in the top row and check them off as they demonstrate competenece for each of the unit's elements and performance criteria.
Assessment Matrix
a slightly different format than the assessment template. A spreadsheet with unit names, elements and performance criteria in separate columns. Put assessment names in column headings to track which performance criteria each one covers. Good for ensuring that you've covered every one of the performance criteria with your assessment instrument (all assessement tools together).
Wiki Markup
mark up the unit in a wiki markup codes, ready to copy and paste into a wiki page. The output will work in most wikis but is designed to work particularly well as a Wikiversity learning project.
Evidence Guide
create an evidence guide for workplace assessment and RPL applicants
Competency Mapping Template
Unit of Competency Mapping – Information for Teachers/Assessors – Information for Learners. A template for developing assessments for a unit, which will help you to create valid, fair and reliable assessments for the unit, ready to give to trainers and students
Observation Checklist
create an observation checklist for workplace assessment and RPL applicants. This is similar to the evidence guide above, but a little shorter and friendlier on your printer. You will also need to create a seperate Assessor Marking Guide for guidelines on gathering evidence and a list of key points for each activity observed using the unit's range statement, required skills and evidence required (see the unit's html page for details)

Self Assessment Survey
A form for students to assess thier current skill levels against each of the unit's performance criteria. Cut and paste into a web document or print and distribute in hard copy.
Moodle Outcomes
Create a csv file of the unit's performance criteria to import into a moodle course as outcomes, ready to associate with each of your assignments. Here's a quick 'how to' for importing these into moodle 2.x
Registered Training Organisations
Trying to find someone to train or assess you? This link lists all the RTOs that are currently registered to deliver AVIY0001, 'Operate aircraft using aircraft flight instruments'.
Google Links
links to google searches, with filtering in place to maximise the usefulness of the returned results
Books
Reference books for 'Operate aircraft using aircraft flight instruments' on fishpond.com.au. This online store has a huge range of books, pretty reasonable prices, free delivery in Australia *and* they give a small commission to ntisthis.com for every purchase, so go nuts :)


Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENTS

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.

1

Establish serviceability of flight instruments and instrument power sources

1.1

Serviceability of flight instrument, pitot/static system and instrument power sources is determined before flight

1.2

Functional checks of flight and navigational instruments are performed before departure

2

Operate aircraft using full instrument procedures

2.1

Flight instrument and instrument power sources are monitored and pilot cautions, warnings and indications are reacted to in accordance with full instrument procedures

2.2

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to full instrument panel to achieve straight and level performance during normal cruise

2.3

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to full instrument panel to achieve nominated climb performance

2.4

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to full instrument panel to achieve nominated descent performance

2.5

Power, attitude and bank during climb, descent and straight and level flight are set and maintained by reference to full instrument panel to achieve rate one turns onto a nominated heading

2.6

Aircraft is balanced and trimmed to maintain nominated aircraft altitude, heading, speed and/or climb/descent performance within flight tolerances

2.7

Aircraft is levelled at nominated altitude, from climb or descent during straight or turning flight

3

Recover from unusual attitudes using full instrument procedures

3.1

Unusual attitudes and upset situations are recognised and identified

3.2

Controlled flight is resumed by reference to flight instruments using a full instrument panel

3.3

Straight and level attitude is achieved without excessive oscillations at the horizon

3.4

Aircraft is recovered to above lowest safe altitude (LSALT)

4

Operate aircraft using limited instrument procedures

4.1

Flight instrument and instrument power sources are monitored and pilot cautions, warnings and indications are reacted to in accordance with limited instrument procedures

4.2

Aircraft is transitioned from full instrument operating procedures to limited instrument operating procedures while maintaining safe flight profiles

4.3

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to limited instrument panel to achieve straight and level performance during normal cruise

4.4

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to limited instrument panel to achieve nominated climb performance

4.5

Power and attitude are set and maintained by reference to limited instrument panel to achieve nominated descent performance

4.6

Power, attitude and bank during climb, descent, straight and level flight are set and maintained by reference to limited instrument panel to achieve rate one turns onto a nominated heading

4.7

Aircraft is balanced and trimmed to maintain nominated aircraft altitude, heading, speed and/or climb/descent performance within flight tolerances

4.8

Aircraft is levelled at nominated altitude, from climb or descent during straight or turning flight

5

Recover from unusual attitudes using limited instrument procedures

5.1

Unusual attitudes and upset situations are recognised and identified

5.2

Controlled flight is resumed by reference to flight instruments using a limited instrument panel

5.3

Straight and level attitude is achieved without excessive oscillations at the horizon

5.4

Aircraft is recovered to above LSALT

6

Re-establish visual flight

6.1

Aircraft is transitioned from visual flight conditions to instrument flight conditions while aircraft control is maintained

6.2

Aircraft is manoeuvred to re-establish visual flight

6.3

Plan is implemented to ensure flight continues within visual meteorological conditions (VMC)

7

Perform steep turns

7.1

Power, attitude and bank are set to maintain level flight by reference to full instrument panel that achieves a steep turn

7.2

Nominated angle of bank is maintained

7.3

Aircraft turn is exited onto nominated heading

7.4

Aircraft is balanced and trimmed to maintain nominated aircraft altitude, heading, speed and/or climb/descent performance within flight tolerances
