Guidance to Examiners The correct use of checklists and airmanship applies throughout all exercises. Examiners may combine certain sections. Examiners shall use the practical test standards as listed in SA-CATS 61 FCL Appendix 2.2 as a practical testing guide-line. The column (I) tagged with means a mandatory aspect for the Initial skill test. The column (R) tagged with means a mandatory aspect for the Revalidation check Number Take-off and landing, (lift off and touch down) 2 Should a compulsory aspect be omitted, the testing officer shall insert N/A behind the aspect and motivate his decision, using the space in the observation column. Failure to be competent for any aspect of the oral examination results in a failing of the entire test. The oral examination must therefore be conducted prior to the practical skill test. Where an aspect is repeated, this should be noted as attempt 2. Not more than 2 attempts should be allowed for any one aspect. to achieve the required standard in any aspect will mean that the applicant is not yet competent and that section of the skill test must be repeated. In the case of more than 2 aspects being found to be below the required standard, the entire skill test shall be repeated. The Designated Flight Examiner shall indicate on this form whether or not additional training is required before a re-test. In the case of aspects requiring a re-test, such re-test shall be carried out within 30 days of the initial test. Examiners must write comments in the observations column whenever an item is repeated or found to be substandard and also when a compulsory item due to special circumstances is waived. (SA CAR 61.01.5) If a skill test, revalidation or proficiency check is unsuccessful: a notice of denial must be submitted; the pilot must undergo corrective training before submitting him or herself for a re-check; no re-check may be conducted within 72 hours of an unsuccessful skill test; no re-check may be conducted without a letter of recommendation. Tolerances Height normal forward flight ± 100 ft Height - with simulated major emergency ± 150 ft Height - hovering IGE ± 2 ft Heading/Tracking of radio aids normal flight ± 10 Heading/Tracking of radio aids - with simulated major emergency ± 15 Speed take-off/ Approach ± 5 kt Speed all other flight regimes ± 10 kt Ground drift - take-off No sideways or backwards movement Ground drift hover ± 3 ft Ground drift on landing No sideways or backwards movement CA 61-06.02.1 30 JUNE 2008 Page 2 of 5
