This manual has been written for Student Pilots who wish to integrate their practical
flight training with the AIRS Technologies Online Pilot Ground Theory course. All
lesson times for both Ground Theory and practical flight lessons are indicative only
and are based on learning abilities and retention levels for average students. Students
may take longer to complete their theory lessons than those times shown and may be
required to repeat both Ground Theory and Practical Flight Lessons as determined
by their Flight Training School or Institution.
Use of this manual does not guarantee that students will be issued with a Pilot's
Licence. Student Pilots are required to pass theory examinations and practical flight
tests with an Authorised Testing Officer (ATO) to predetermined standards as laid
down by the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
This manual is a guide only and does not take precedence over any other documents
including but not limited to "The Day VFR Syllabus", Australia National
Competency Standards for Private and Commercial Pilots, CASA AIP's including
CAO's and CAR's or Flight School Operations Manuals, Training Manuals or
Standard Operating Procedure Manuals (SOP's) or the aircraft Pilot Operating
Handbook (POH).
Student Pilots shall only conduct practical flight training as directed by their Flight
Training Instructors.

So Good Luck with your flight training and always remember that:
INTRODUCTION
WHAT IS NEEDED TO BECOME A LICENCED PILOT?
A trainee must demonstrate that he/she has attained CASA's minimum
stipulated standards relating to flying skill, knowledge, and mental
attitude before a pilot licence can be awarded.
Examinations
Theoretical knowledge is examined in industry based and CASA
written exams. The syllabus for Aeronautical Knowledge Training,
upon which the exams are based is detailed in Section 3 of the CASA
publication, "Day VFR Syllabus- Aeroplanes".
Skills
The manipulative and cognitive skills needed to become a pilot are
developed through a course of practical flying training which is based
on the "Day VFR Syllabus-Aeroplanes. Standardised assessments
have been developed by the use of competency based training
systems. The associated skills that must be demonstrated by a trainee
and how these skills are to be assessed are detailed in the CASA
publication, "Australian National Competency Standards for Private
and Commercial Pilots".
CAR's, CAO's and other CASA publications stipulate the minimum
aeronautical experience levels that must be accrued during recognised
flying training courses, as well as the exam's, which must be passed to
satisfy the qualification requirements so that a licence may be issued.
SYLLABUS
Explanation of Terminology.
The pilot licence training process involves training in theoretical,
practical, manipulative, and cognitive skills. These skills must be
developed, and later demonstrated competently by the trainee to an
instructor or assessor.
How the training is structured and presented will greatly influence the
trainee's speed of learning, and more importantly the trainee's rate of
retention of the learnt material.
AIRS Technologies have developed a syllabus of training to guide the
flying training organization through the training process.
The syllabus is comprised of a number of sequential Training
Activities (TA), each being comprised of several sub-parts called:
a.

The "Training Activity Versus Competency Element Grids" which
follow are intended to show a matrix of typical competency
elements which can be introduced or assessed during a training
activity.
Not all trainees will complete the TA satisfactorily at the pace
depicted in the grids. Therefore they are only a guide to the
anticipated progress of an average trainee.
NOTE:

AERONAUTICAL KNOWLEDGE
1. Determine the action necessary to obtain the meteorological documentation required by AIP
for a
flight to any aerodrome in Australia.
2.
Use any meteorological document specified in AIP. to determine the feasibility of an I.F.R.
flight in accordance with the requirements of AIP ENR 1.1. All requirements are to be
considered
either singly or in combination at candidates initiative.
*3. Given air temperature in clear air or in cloud, determine approximate height of freezing level,
using a temperature lapse rate of 3 degrees Celsius per 1000 feet in clear air and 1.5 degrees
Celsius in cloud.
*4. Given pilot observations, either in clear air or in cloud, of any one or more of the following
phenomena - turbulence, precipitation, temperature, cloud type - predict the probability and
likely

At
6. You are 5 nm left of track and A/H on to 225 (M). After a further 45 nm you discover that you
are now 3 nm right of track! The distance to go to the TP is 27 nm.
Calculate the new HDG to the TP.
7. You are 3 nm right of track and A/H on to 002 (M). After a further 33 nm you find that you are
1 nm right of track and still have 22 nm to go to the TP. Calculate the new HDG to the TP.
8. You are 6 nm right of track and A/H on to 295 (M). After a further 53 nm you find yourself 4
