Instrument Rating - Approach with Loss of Primary Flight Instrument Indicators Knowledge:
The applicant demonstrates an understanding of:-
IR.VII.D.K1:
Recognizing if primary flight instruments are inaccurate or inoperative, and advising ATC or the evaluator. -
IR.VII.D.K2:
Possible failure modes of primary instruments and how to correct or minimize the effect of the loss.
Instrument Rating - Approach with Loss of Primary Flight Instrument Indicators Risk Management:
The applicant is able to identify, assess, and mitigate risks associated with:-
IR.VII.D.R1:
Use of secondary flight displays when primary displays have failed. -
IR.VII.D.R2:
Maintaining aircraft control. -
IR.VII.D.R3:
Distractions, task prioritization, loss of situational awareness, or disorientation.
Instrument Rating - Approach with Loss of Primary Flight Instrument Indicators Skills:
The applicant exhibits the skills to:-
IR.VII.D.S1:
Advise ATC or the evaluator if unable to comply with a clearance. -
IR.VII.D.S2:
