Note   Licence applicants (candidates) are required to only complete the portions of this unit that are relevant to the modular licence for which they are applying. For example, a candidate need only complete the airframe aspects of this unit if applying for an airframe modular licence. For training reporting purposes, MTOs are requested to specify on the CASA Form 465 those aspects of the unit which have been successfully completed by a candidate, and that are relevant to the modular licence for which the candidate intends to apply.

Schedule 2 Amendments

[1] Appendix II, clause 1.11

substitute

1.11 A module examination that a candidate has failed for the first time may be retaken by the candidate at any time after the date of the candidate’s first attempt of the module examination.

1.11A A module examination that a candidate has failed for the second time may not be retaken by the candidate for at least 30 days after the date of the candidate’s second attempt of the module examination.

1.11B After a set of 3 failed attempts at a module examination, a candidate may not retake the module examination for at least 6 months after the date of the candidate’s last failed attempt of the module examination.

1.11C If clause 1.11B applies and a candidate fails their next attempt of the module examination that was retaken after the “standdown” period of at least 6 months mentioned in clause 1.11B:

(a) clause 1.11 applies in relation to the timing of the candidate’s following attempt of the module examination as if it was the candidate’s second attempt of the module examination; and

(b) if the candidate fails the module examination attempt mentioned in paragraph (a), clause 1.11A applies to the timing of the candidate’s next attempt of the module examination as if it was the candidate’s third attempt.

Note   The intent of clause 1.11C is to apply the “timing cycle” set out in clauses 1.11 to 1.11B to each set of 3 failed module examinations.

[2] Appendix II, clause 1.13, excluding the note

substitute

1.13 After each set of 3 failed attempts by a candidate of a module examination, the candidate must give, after the last of the 3 failed attempts, written notice of the following to the body (an MTO or CASA) to which the candidate applies to sit the examination again:

(a) the number, and dates, of attempts by the candidate of the examination;

(b) for each examination attempt notified by the candidate — details of the body (an MTO or CASA) that conducted the examination.
