What an assessment for AVIY0072 must cover

107 assessable components: 6 elements (29 performance criteria), 33 performance evidence and 45 knowledge evidence requirements. An audit-defensible tool maps every question and task back to these — that mapping is the coverage matrix Auditori generates alongside the assessment.

Elements & performance criteria

5.3Decision is made to continue or abort approach/landing
5.4Decision height for landing is nominated
5.5ATC or other agency capable of providing assistance is advised of situation and intentions
5.6Smooth, positively-controlled flight profile is flown, from which a controlled landing could be achieved
5.7Positive directional control is maintained and cross-wind corrections are applied during after-landing roll while maintaining centreline within tolerances
5.8Spoilers, prop reverse, thrust reversers, wheel brakes, and other drag or braking devices are applied to bring airplane to a safe stop after landing

6 Conduct go-around or missed approach with engine failure

6.1Engine failure in a multi-engine aeroplane during a go-around or missed approach is identified and confirmed
6.2Control of aeroplane flight path is maintained during implementation of emergency response procedures
6.3Engine inoperative go-around is performed from decision height

Questions about assessing AVIY0072

What does an assessment tool for AVIY0072 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for AVIY0072 needs to address all 107 unit components: 6 elements with 29 performance criteria, 33 performance evidence requirements, 45 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for AVIY0072?

Auditori pulls the current release of AVIY0072 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for AVIY0072 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing AVIY0072 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of AVIY0072, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
