The grade of instrument rating (ME-CIR, SE-CIR or CP) and any aids which the holder is endorsed on (RNAV, ILS, VOR, NDB, DGA etc)

(CAO 40.2.1)

• 50 hours cross country as pilot in command
• 40 hours instrument time, minumum 20 hours in category of aircraft for which rating is sought
• 20 hours cross country instrument time
• 10 hours dual instrument flight instruction time
• 10 hours night flight not less than 5 hours PIC if rating is to be used for night flights.

• 1 approach last 90 days
• 1 approach in last 6 months on same type of GNSS reciever as the approach intended to be flown (or one determined in writing by CASA to be the same type)

• GPS satisfies requirement for DME and vice-versa
• ILS/LLZ satisfies requirements for VOR but VOR does not satisfy ILS/LLZ requirements

1 approach in last 35 days

If an instrument rating is expired for less than 12 months what is required to renew it?

Pass test applicable to instrument rating renewal

If and instrument rating is expired for more than 12 months what is required to renew it?

Pass test applicable to instrument rating initial issue

Can a holder of an instrument rating renew it using an overseas flight simulator training provider?

Yes provided it is passed in a contracting state whose flight simulation qualifications are recognised by CASA

Privileges and limitations of instrument rating?

Authorised to fly aircraft as PIC or co-pilot under IFR

Only using navaids endorsed in logbook (however GPS for navigation only ok without RNAV endorsement as long as CASA approved training has been received and logbook endorsed as such)

May not exercise privileges following a failed renewal until renewal is passed unless receiving flying instruction (however DME may be used for navigation)

What requirements must be satisfied for a person to fly an RNAV as PIC using equipment they have not used before?

3 approaches in flight or using a synthetic flight trainer using that receiver or one CASA has deemed to be the same

A member of a flight crew may conduct, without an endorsement, a GNSS approach and landing procedure, and RNAV-based approach using the FMS, an MLS under what conditions?

·      Aircraft is operated by an AOC holder approved by CASA with a check/training organisation approved under CAR 217

·      Pilot is employed by the AOC holder and has received training in accordance with the holder’s approved training syllabus

·      For a precision approach holds and ILS endorsement

A co-pilot may use a navaid or procedure not endorsed in logbook provided what conditions are satisfied?

Crew member of an aircraft operated by and AOC holder with cyclic training and proficiency program approved under 217 and has received training and demonstrated competency in the navaid to a standard applicable to its entry into a logbook

Charter flights may fly by night under night VFR procedures provided what conditions are satisfied?

Aeronautical experience: 10 hours cross country under NVFR including a minimum of 2 exercises (300nm or 3hrs duration) as PIC/ICUS exceeding a distance of 100nm from departure and one landing at an area remote from extensive ground lighting

Recent experience: 3 night takeoffs/landings withing preceding 90 days and night cross country flight of at least 1 hr/100nm or a night check within preceding 6 months

Normal flight tolerances (heading, speed, height)?

Heading +/-5

Speed +/- 10kts not below minimum approach speed for congfiguration

Height +/- 100ft, or at minimum altitudes +100ft minus 0ft

Assymetric flight tolerances?

Heading (from datum heading) +/-20° initially, then +/-5°

Airspeed: Initial climb +/-5kts from nominated 1 engine inop climb speeds

Subsequent operations +/-10kts not below minimum approach speeds for configuration.

Height: as per normal operations

NDB tolerances?

5° of nominated track, for procedure descent may not be commenced until within tolerance

VOR tolerances?

5° of nominated track, for procedure descent may not be commenced until within tolerance

ILS/LLZ tolerances?

+/- ½ scale deflection (and equivalent on expanded scale); must be able to land from minimum altitude without undue manoeuvring 

DGA tolerances?

Tracking as per NDB/VOR on defined track otherwise within specified sector and descent in accordance with steps

RNAV/GNSS tolerances?

+/- ½ scale deflection at each waypoint passage and on final approach descent must not be started unless established within this tolerance; approach mode must be activated during final approach

DME/GNSS arc tolerances?

+/- 2nm

For the purposes of a renewal may proficiency in approaches be demonstrated in a synthetic flight trainer?

As long as proficiency in at least 1 other navaid is demonstrated in flight or in an approved flight simulator

What approaches may be used to demonstrate proficiency in other approaches for the purposes of a renewal?

ILS/LLZ may demonstrate proficiency in VOR provided 1 other non- precision instrument approach is demonstrated as part of the test.

LLZ may be used to demonstrate proficiency in ILS provided ILS proficiency was demonstrated at the previous renewal.

Does DGA need to be tested for a renewal?

No, provided it is entered into the logbook previously having demonstrated proficiency.

What standard temperature lapse rates are used for the purposes of determining freezing level?

3° per 1000ft in clear air otherwise 1.5° per 1000ft in cloud.

CAO requirements do not apply but QRH abnormality requirements do apply. However, if the CAO requirements cannot be applied in the abnormal secenario then a diversion to a longer runway should be first consideration.
