Elements and Performance Criteria
ELEMENT |
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA |
1 Prepare for IMC arrival |
1.1 Applicable aerodrome weather, airfield conditions and traffic information is obtained and applied 1.2 Descent/approach checks and briefings are completed 1.3 Approach and landing configurations are established appropriate for the runway and meteorological condition |
2 Conduct IMC arrival to instrument approach point |
2.1 Ground track is maintained to ensure that the subsequent instrument approach or traffic pattern can be flown, taking into account any obstructions and Air Traffic Control (ATC) instructions 2.2 Obstacle clearance minima are maintained IAW AIP and/or ATC instructions 2.3 Existing wind conditions are verified making corrections for drift to maintain a precise ground track 2.4 Stabilised approach is maintained with the specified airspeed and rate of descent tolerances 2.5 Approach point intercepted IAW AIP requirements for commencing selected instrument approach |
