correctly perform low level circuit and landing;
                   6.       correctly perform after landing and shutdown checks.
     5.               LL-H.5 – Execute autorotative forced landing (simulated) from below 500 ft AGL (single‑engine helicopter only)
            1.        identify potential forced-landing areas prior to and during low-level operations;
            2.        recognise engine failure or any other emergency requiring a forced landing and conduct recall actions;
            3.         maintain control of the aircraft – select the most appropriate landing area within gliding distance while avoiding any powerlines or obstructions;
            4.        manoeuvre the aircraft to a landing area that achieves the safest outcome;
            5.        explain plan of action and the landing techniques that would ensure the safest outcome when committed to a forced landing on unfavourable terrain or water.
     6.               LL-H.6 – Execute engine failure (simulated) from below 500 ft AGL (multi-engine helicopter only)
            1.        identify potential escape routes prior to and during low-level operations;
            2.        recognise engine failure or any other emergency and conduct recall actions;
            3.         maintain control of the aircraft – initiate climb to safe altitude;
            4.        manoeuvre the aircraft via escape route to a safe altitude;
            5.        complete check system items;
            6.          explain plan of action.
     7.               LL-H.7 – Operate at low level in hilly terrain
            1.        safely manipulate the aeroplane at low level in hilly terrain;
            2.        establish and maintain safe height relevant to application type;
            3.         demonstrate safe contour flying;
            4.        identify and select appropriate natural markers to aid situational awareness;
            5.        demonstrate safe approaches to higher ground, including identification of escape routes;
            6.          demonstrate safe turns in hilly terrain;
            7.        demonstrate awareness and management of the effects of wind and turbulence in hilly terrain, including lee effects;
            8.        demonstrate awareness of illusions in hilly terrain, including false horizon effect and shadows.

        6.          limitations may be imposed by local noise abatement procedures and curfews.
