4                                         Approach and landing, or baulked landing  section 10.44

Division 2—Flight in performance class 1 or 2 or performance class 2 with exposure

10.08  Requirement to be a Category A rotorcraft
  For subregulation 133.320(2) of CASR, a Category A rotorcraft is prescribed.

Division 3—Flight in performance class 2 with exposure

Subdivision 1—Preliminary

10.09  Definitions for Division 3
  In this Division:
PC2WE flight means a flight, of a rotorcraft, in performance class 2 with exposure during the take-off stage, take-off and initial climb stage, or approach and landing, or baulked landing stage, of the flight.
preventative maintenance actions means any of the following:
 (a) engine oil spectrometric, and debris, analysis;
 (b) engine-trend monitoring, based on available power assurance checks;
 (c) vibration analysis;
 (d) oil-consumption monitoring.

Subdivision 2—Requirements to be complied with

10.10  Purpose of Subdivision 2
  This Subdivision prescribes requirements for paragraph 133.325(2)(a) of CASR.

10.11  Maximum permitted exposure time
 (1) The rotorcraft may only be flown during each of the following stages of the flight if the exposure time is not more than the time, in seconds, stated in the approval under regulation 133.015 of CASR for the rotorcraft to be flown during that stage of the flight:
 (a) take-off;
 (b) take-off and initial climb;
 (c) approach and landing, or baulked landing.
 (1A) The exposure time, determined by CASA under the approval, must not be more than 36 seconds.
Note 1: In determining the exposure time, CASA takes into account the engine reliability data, for the rotorcraft, provided by the original equipment manufacturer, or type certificate holder, for the rotorcraft.
Note 2: CASA may determine an exposure time of more than 9 seconds, but not more than 36 seconds, on the basis of proportional reductions in engine failure rates for the rotorcraft of less than 1 for 100 000 engine hours.
 (2) For paragraphs (1)(a) and (b), the exposure time in relation to the take-off, and take-off and initial climb, stages of the flight must be measured from the point during the flight where the rotorcraft is no longer able to land in a suitable forced landing area, for the flight, until the rotorcraft's gradient of climb with 1 engine inoperative is equal to the gradient of the obstacle-clear take-off surface.
 (3) For paragraph (1)(c), the exposure time in relation to the approach and landing, or baulked landing stage of the flight must be measured from the defined point before landing, for the rotorcraft, until the rotorcraft is able to make a safe landing.

10.12  Take-off weight limitations
  The rotorcraft must have a maximum weight at take-off, for the flight, which does not exceed the lowest of the following weights:
 (a) the MTOW for the rotorcraft;
 (b) the all engines
