at night are that the rotorcraft must be able to:
 (a) descend to a height of 1 500 ft above an aerodrome that is suitable for the rotorcraft to land at in VMC; and
 (b) fly at a height that ensures that the pilot in command does not contravene any provision of Part 91 of CASR dealing with minimum heights for VFR flights at night for the rotorcraft's track for the drift-down manoeuvre to the aerodrome.
 (6) For subparagraph (2)(b)(iii), the requirements for conducting a drift-down manoeuvre for a VFR flight by day are that the rotorcraft must be able to:
 (a) descend to a height of 1 000 ft above an aerodrome that is suitable for the rotorcraft to land at; and
 (b) fly at least 1 000 ft above the highest obstacle on the ground or water within 900 m ahead of, and to either side of, the rotorcraft at each point on the rotorcraft's track for the drift-down manoeuvre to the aerodrome.

10.36  Performance class 1 — approach and landing, or baulked landing
 (1) For item 4 of the table in section 10.04, the requirements for the approach and landing, or baulked landing stage of a flight of a rotorcraft are the requirements stated in this section.
 (2) The landing weight of the rotorcraft must not exceed the maximum weight, mentioned in the rotorcraft's flight manual, required:
 (a) for the type of approach procedure to be used; and
 (b) to achieve the following rates of climb with 1 engine inoperative:
 (i) 100 ft per minute at 200 ft above the aerodrome;
 (ii) 150 ft per minute at 1 000 ft above the aerodrome.
 (3) The landing weight of the rotorcraft must not exceed the maximum weight, mentioned in the rotorcraft's flight manual, required for the rotorcraft to safely land and stop with 1 engine inoperative within the landing distance available for a landing of the rotorcraft at the aerodrome.
 (4) If an engine becomes inoperative before, or at, the landing decision point for the landing, the rotorcraft must be able to:
 (a) safely land and stop within the final approach and take‑off area for the aerodrome; or
 (b) both:
 (i) conduct a baulked landing; and
 (ii) clear a relevant obstacle, if any, under the baulked landing climb flight path by a margin of at least:
                   (A) for a VFR flight — 35 ft; and
                   (B) for an IFR flight — the total of 35 ft and (0.01 x S, for the point).
 (5) For subsection (4), if a change of direction of more than 15 degrees is required to achieve the margin, the rotorcraft must be able, during the change of direction, to clear the relevant obstacle
