instrument procedures;
12.        operations below LSALT and MSA for day and 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 code CIR.
 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 and IFF.
 1.        complete all relevant checks and procedures;
 2.        plan, brief and conduct take-off and departure procedures;
 3.        conduct an instrument departure and, if available, in accordance with:
       1.      a published procedure; or
       2.      an ATC clearance.

 1.               En route cruise
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit code CIR.
 1.        navigate en route using 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).

 1.               Test specific activities and manoeuvres
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit codes CIR, IFF and IFL.
 1.        perform full panel and 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 test in a multi-engine aircraft, 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 a test in a multi-engine aircraft, conduct an instrument approach with 1 engine inoperative;
 2.        for a test in a multi-engine aircraft, with 1 engine inoperative, conduct 1 of the following:
       1.      a missed approach procedure;
       2.      a visual circling procedure.

 1.               Descent and arrival
Note   The relevant competency standards are in unit codes CIR, IAP2, and IAP3.
 1.        perform a descent or published arrival procedure to an aerodrome;
 2.        track to the holding fix position and conduct a holding pattern or sector 3 entry procedure, and if the approach procedure is an RNAV/(GNSS) approach, then the holding pattern or sector 3 entry procedure must be for the RNAV/(GNSS) procedure;
 3.        for 2 different kinds of instrument approach procedure, conduct 2D instrument approach operations as follows:
       1.      prepare for each operation;
       2.      conduct the operation;
 4.        if required for the test — conduct a 3D instrument approach operation as follows:
       1.      prepare for the operation;
       2.      conduct the operation;
 5.        conduct a missed approach
