SECTION 5 OPERATIONAL RATING AND ENDORSEMENT STANDARDS
INSTRUMENT RATING

CIR Conduct an IFR flight

 1.                     Unit description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to conduct a flight in an aircraft under the IFR.

 1.                     Elements and performance criteria
     1.               CIR.1 – Plan a flight under the IFR
            1.        determine aircraft is properly equipped and serviceable for IFR flight;
            2.        possess and use all the required documentation that is current to plan an IFR flight;
            3.         prepare an accurate flight plan that ensures all applicable operational requirements are met;
            4.        make flight notification;
            5.        check navigation system database is current;
            6.          initialise navigation system (as applicable);
            7.        conduct navigation system validity check (as applicable);
            8.        conduct RAIM check if required;
            9.          select, load, check and activate the flight plan (as applicable).
     2.               CIR.2 – Perform an instrument departure
            1.        prepare aircraft and aircraft systems for departure;
            2.        demonstrate consideration of and planning for non-normal and emergencies during departure;
            3.         demonstrate adequate knowledge of both of published and cleared and non‑published and non-cleared instrument departures;
            4.        establish lowest take-off minima required considering aircraft performance, aerodrome, available instrument approaches and environmental conditions;
            5.        conduct instrument departure to comply with obstacle clearance requirements.
     3.               CIR.3 – Conduct a published instrument departure (all engines)
            1.        perform a SID or other published departure;
            2.        maintain assigned SID, including all tracks, headings, altitudes and speeds;
            3.         perform a cleared departure safely and maintain tracks, headings, altitudes and speeds within specified tolerances.
     4.               CIR.4 – Conduct an instrument departure (1 engine inoperative) – simulated IMC
            1.        for single-engine aircraft instrument endorsements:
                   1.          following engine failure establish optimum flight path and manoeuvres aircraft towards most suitable terrain considering conditions;
                   2.         time permitting conduct checklists and radio calls.
            2.        for multi-engine aircraft instrument endorsements:
                   1.          during departure manages aircraft following a simulated 1 engine inoperative event;
                   2.         maintain aircraft flight path within published tolerances;
                   3.       conduct checklists and radio calls;
                   4.       maintain terrain clearance;
                   5.         assess condition and decide to continue or return to aerodrome.
     5.               CIR.5 – Navigate aircraft under the IFR using ground-based and satellite-based navigational systems
            1.        demonstrate adequate knowledge of the published procedures associated with navigating an aircraft under the IFR using ground-based
