            6.          manoeuvre aircraft to avoid jet blast hazard;
            7.        request taxi guidance if unsure of position;
            8.        use strobes when crossing any runway.
     3.               CTR.3 – Perform departure from controlled aerodrome
            1.        receive and correctly read back an airways clearance;
            2.        check and ensure runway approach is clear prior to entering a runway;
            3.         correctly set transponder code and mode prior to entering runway for take-off;
            4.        comply with ATC departure instructions;
            5.        advise ATC as soon as possible if unable to comply with clearance;
            6.          contact approach with airborne report or give departure call to tower;
            7.        maintain lookout;
            8.        avoid wake turbulence;
            9.          comply with airways clearances within tracking and altitude tolerances and maintain traffic lookout until clear of the aerodrome control zone.
     4.               CTR.4 – Perform arrival and landing at controlled aerodrome
            1.        check ERSA and NOTAM prior to entering control area and extract required operational information;
            2.        receive ATIS and correctly set the appropriate QNH;
            3.         request and receive ATC clearance and set correct transponder code prior to entering control area;
            4.        advise ATC as soon as possible if unable to comply with clearance;
            5.        maintain lookout at all times;

ONTA Operate at non-towered aerodromes

 1.                     Unit description
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to operate an aircraft to and from a non‑ towered aerodrome or landing area.

 1.                     Elements and performance criteria
     1.               ONTA.1 – Non-towered aerodrome – pre-flight preparation
            1.        using a current ERSA and NOTAM, for the non-towered aerodrome or landing area, extract all of the relevant operational information;
            2.        interpret the extracted information;
