4. Operational scope and conditions

    4.1 For paragraph 1.1 (b), the following operational scope applies to the flight test:
       (a) managing an aircraft system, which is not required for the flight, is not an assessable item unless the applicant uses the system during the flight;
       (b) simulated carriage of passengers and cargo;
       (c) simulated private local area operation;
       (d) operating in Class G airspace, at a non-towered aerodrome;
       (e) emergencies and abnormal situations relating to aircraft systems, powerplants and the airframe are simulated and limited to those described in the aircraft flight manual.
