3. Scoring Rubrics for Flight Simulation (25%)

	Band 1 (1-3)	Band 2 (4-5)	Band 3 (6-7)

Flies downwind leg accurately and displays proper trimming techniques.	Maintain parameters near perfect. Perfect trimming techniques with minimal loss of height.
Base (Turning point: 45 degrees to runway)	Poor entry and descent techniques. Descent is unstable and does not turn at the appropriate point on the circuit. All other parameters not flown well.	Satisfactory techniques and stability on the descent. Initiation of descent takes place within limits (40 to 50 degrees). Parameters flown correctly.	Perfect technique and control of the aircraft on the descent. Perfect timing when initiating the turn onto base. Parameters flown perfectly.
Final	Turn to final done incorrectly. Overshooting or undershooting of the approach path. Incorrect height maintained. Poor judgement and anticipation. Poor effort to maintain centreline or correction for entry into approach. Aircraft is poorly set up for landing.	Turn to final done correctly. Slight overshooting or undershooting. Satisfactory judgement and anticipation. Efforts are made to maintain centreline and corrections for approach. Aircraft is set up for approach accurately.	Turn to final executed perfectly. No overshooting or undershooting. All turns and descents performed perfectly and accurately. Aircraft is set up for perfect approach.
Landing	Poor landing techniques. No attempt made to flair out. Poor in maintaining centreline, aim point, and speed. Hard landing.	Satisfactory landing techniques. Flair out is done correctly but is either slightly shallow or poorly timed. Able to maintain centreline, aim point, and speed. Landing rate is satisfactory.	Perfect use of landing techniques. Flair out is perfectly executed and maintaining of parameters. Smooth landing.
General	General score on entire flight (1-7)
TOTAL	8 criteria x 7 marks each = 56 56 points will converted to a score out of 25% of the overall score. For example: 48/56 = 21.4/25
