Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Conduct aeroplane landing
  • 1.1 Aeroplane is landed at a controlled rate of descent with alignment above the runway centreline, within a specified area without drift, and directional control is maintained
  • 1.2 Existing wind conditions are confirmed, drift corrections are applied, precise ground track is maintained, and aeroplane is configured for cross-wind landing conditions as required
  • 1.3 Ballooning and bouncing are minimised and controlled in accordance with established aeroplane landing procedures
  • 1.4 Positive directional control is maintained and cross-wind corrections are applied as required during the after-landing roll
  • 1.5 After-landing checks are performed in accordance with approved checklist
  • 1.6 Separation with conflicting air and ground traffic is maintained
  • 1.7 Runway is vacated when practicable
  • 1.8 Aeroplane is stopped safely using drag and/or braking devices within available runway length
  • 1.9 Landing clearance is obtained at applicable airfields
  • 1.10 Wake turbulence is avoided
  • 1.11 Weather conditions are monitored
2 Manage mishandled landing
  • 2.1 Conditional requirements for conducting a missed approach are recognised
  • 2.2 Decision to perform missed approach and subsequent go-around is made when safe landing cannot be achieved
  • 2.3 Power, attitude and configuration are selected to safely control aeroplane
  • 2.4 Aeroplane is manoeuvred clear of the ground and after take-off procedures are conducted
  • 2.5 Allowance for wind velocity is made during go-around
  • 2.6 Wake turbulence is avoided
