and specific gravity of the fuel;
(iv)          location and arms of the seating;
(b)           determine the forward, aft and lateral limits of the CG for a given weight in the case of the above helicopter;
(c)           determine whether the helicopter is safely loaded for flight given various combinations of weight and balance data using arithmetical methods or the specified loading system for the helicopter;
(d)           calculate the adjustment of load required to achieve a CG within specified limits if previously determined to be outside limits;
(e)           calculate where to position additional load items so that the CG is retained within the specific limits.
1.7                    Flight plan preparation
1.7.1              Apply the responsibilities of a pilot in command with regard to weather and operational briefing prior to planning a VFR flight.
1.7.2              Given a route, select appropriate charts for the flight and list the operations for which it is mandatory to obtain a weather briefing.
1.7.3              List the weather services available, and nominate the sources and methods of obtaining this information.
1.7.4              State the minimum flight notification required, the method(s) of submitting this notification, and identify the flight plan details that must be submitted.
1.7.5              Given an aerodrome forecast, decide whether it is necessary to the following:
(a)           nominate an alternate aerodrome;
(b)           carry additional fuel for holding and if so:
(i)             nominate an appropriate alternate aerodrome;
(ii)            determine the quantity of additional fuel required for holding or flight to the alternate.
1.7.6              Given a typical flight scenario, including:
(a)           departure and landing points within and outside controlled airspace;
(b)           weather and operational briefing;
(c)           appropriate performance data;
(d)           select safe route/cruise levels to comply with VFR;
(e)           select cruise levels for the following:
(i)             to comply with VFR and the table of cruising levels;
(ii)            which meets passenger and fuel economy requirements;
(f)             determine for the following:
(i)             the minimum fuel required;
(ii)            the maximum payload (passengers/cargo and fuel) that may be carried whilst meeting the appropriate requirements;
(iii)          whether intermediate refuelling is necessary;
(iv)          ETD/ETA after considering VFR (day) requirements and flight/duty time limitations;
(g)           complete a flight plan and a loading system.

Unit 1.9.8 COPG:  CPL operations, performance and planning – gyroplane

1. Operational knowledge

1.1 Aerodromes and gyroplane landing areas (ALAs)
         1.1.1 ALAs are included as a topic in this syllabus for the purposes of a pilot's responsibilities in accordance with CAR and CASR.
    1.1.2 Explain and apply the following terms used in CASA publications and documents:
     (a) take-off distance available (TODA);
     (b) take-off distance required (TODR);
     (c) landing distance available (LDA);
     (d) landing distance required (LDR).
         1.1.3 Determine whether a given aerodrome or ALA is suitable for a gyroplane to take off and land safely in accordance
