IAP3 Conduct an instrument approach 3D

 1.                     Unit description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to perform a 3D instrument approach procedure.

 1.                     Elements and performance criteria
     1.               IAP3.1 – Prepares for approach
            1.        review latest available information for destination;
            2.        conduct navigation system validity check (as applicable);
            3.         conduct RAIM/SBAS check if required;
            4.        select, load, check and activate the flight plan (as applicable);
            5.        select and brief current approach chart for the approach to be flown;
            6.          check and confirm navigation aid required for the approach is serviceable.
     2.               IAP3.2 – Conducts initial approach
            1.        set altimeter QNH;
            2.        manoeuvre aircraft to the holding fix.
     3.               IAP3.3 – Conducts a holding pattern
            1.        from the holding fix enter and perform a holding pattern;
            2.        fly aircraft in accordance with procedure.
     4.               IAP3.4 – Conducts an approach
            1.        update and set altimeter QNH;
            2.        uses automation appropriately;
            3.         navigation aid signal integrity monitored during approach;
            4.        vertical and lateral path flown within published tolerances;
            5.        specified altitude check on glide slope is performed;
            6.          from the final approach fix to minima aircraft is flown to a stabilised descent profile;
            7.        after establishing visual reference, a visual circling or runway approach is conducted for a landing on the selected runway.
     5.               IAP3.5 – Conducts a missed approach
            1.        conditions requiring a missed approach are recognised and missed approach is initiated;
            2.        aircraft is manoeuvred to MAPt;
            3.         missed approach procedure is conducted in accordance with the IAL chart;
            4.        obstacle clearance in IMC or simulated IMC is maintained.
