night operations;
13.        GNSS and PBN standards;
14.        circling approaches;
15.        adverse weather operations;
16.        ERSA normal and emergency procedures;
17.        IFR planning.

 1.                  Activities and manoeuvres
Note   For paragraph 1 (b), the flight test includes all of the following activities and manoeuvres. The sequence set out here is not necessarily intended to direct the order of activities and manoeuvres.

 1.               Pre-flight
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit codes C2, C4, CIR and PIF.
 1.        plan an IFR flight;
 2.        perform pre-flight actions and procedures.

 1.               Ground operations, take-off, departure and climb
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit codes CIR, IFF and PIF.
 1.        complete all relevant checks and procedures;
 2.        plan, brief and conduct take-off and departure procedures;
 3.        for a departure endorsement, plan, brief and conduct an instrument departure;
 4.        for a standard instrument departure (SID) endorsement, perform a SID or published departure procedure.

 1.               En route cruise
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit code PIF.
 1.        for each navigation endorsement being assessed during the test — navigate en route using the applicable ground-based and satellite-based navigation systems;
 2.        perform ground-based and satellite-based navigation system integrity checks;
 3.        identify and avoid hazardous weather conditions (may be simulated);
 4.        for each navigation endorsement covered by the flight test — using guidance information from the applicable navigation system, track to the holding fix and conduct a holding pattern or sector 3 entry procedure.

 1.               Test specific activities and manoeuvres
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit codes CIR, IFF, IFL, NVR and PIF.
 1.        perform full panel instrument flying;
 2.        if the flight test is for the grant of the rating, do the following:
       1.      perform limited panel instrument flying;
       2.      recover from at least 2 different unusual aircraft attitudes, including the following:
              1.      1 recovery using a full instrument panel;
              2.      1 recovery using a limited instrument panel;
 3.        for a multi-engine aircraft departure endorsement — conduct an instrument departure with 1 engine inoperative;
Note   For clarity, this manoeuvre must be separate to the manoeuvre required in paragraph (e), namely a missed approach.
 1.        for an approach/arrival category specific endorsement — in a multi-engine aircraft of the applicable category, with 1 engine inoperative:
       1.      conduct an instrument approach; and
       2.      conduct 1 of the following:
              1.      a missed approach;
              2.      a visual circling procedure;
 2.        for the category specific night endorsement, in an aircraft of the applicable category:
       1.      control the aircraft on the ground at night; and
       2.      conduct normal circuit patterns and landings at night with and without landing lights; and
       3.      manage a cockpit lighting failure; and
       4.      perform a go-around at night.

 1.               Descent and arrival
