Note In this instrument, certain terms and expressions have the same meaning as they have in the Civil Aviation Act 1988 and the regulations. These include: adventure flight, air traffic control, pilot licence and training endorsement.
(1) In this instrument:
Note For active participation see participation.
hold short line means a line on a hold short runway beyond which the pilot in command of a landing aircraft, following the pilot’s active participation, is instructed not to proceed.
hold short runway means a runway used for LAHSO, being a runway that has aerodrome signs, runway markings and lighting requirements in accordance with the applicable standards.
instrument flying means controlling an aircraft’s attitude during flight solely by reference to the aircraft’s flight instruments.
LAHSO means a Land and Hold Short Operation, being an operation in which the pilot in command of an aircraft has accepted a requirement to land on a hold short runway and hold short of the hold short line.
participation, in relation to LAHSO, has the following meanings:
(a) active participation means accepting a requirement to hold short of a hold short line, after receiving an alert about aircraft on a crossing runway;
(b) passive participation means having unrestricted use of a full runway but acknowledging an alert about a LAHSO on a crossing runway.
visual flying means controlling an aircraft’s attitude during flight by reference to features outside the aircraft.

Appendix 1
Standards to be met for the LAHSO logbook certification
1 Introduction
1.1 This Appendix specifies the standards of competency and aeronautical knowledge required for the issue of a LAHSO logbook certification. These standards must be satisfied by a combined oral examination and practical check carried out by a person authorised to issue the logbook certification.
1.2 Before the issue of a LAHSO endorsement, the applicant must demonstrate that the standards of flying competency specified in Appendix 2 have been achieved.
1.3 The oral examination must indicate an ability to satisfy each of the items included in the aeronautical knowledge syllabus detailed in clause 2 of this Appendix.
1.4 In the oral examination, candidates may refer to AIP (complete — including En Route Supplement Australia (AIP‑ERSA) and Aerodrome Directory) and Parts 20 to 95 of the Civil Aviation Orders.
1.5 The practical check must be conducted in an aeroplane at an aerodrome at which LAHSO are authorised or in a synthetic flight trainer approved by CASA as suitable for that purpose. LAHSO need not be in use at an aerodrome during the test if the appropriate procedures are simulated by the person conducting the check.
2 Aeronautical knowledge syllabus
2.1 Recall the procedures for participation in LAHSO in Australia.
2.2 Identify the aerodromes where LAHSO may be conducted in Australia.
2.3 Explain the term active participation.
2.4 Explain the term passive participation.
2.5 Identify and interpret the aerodrome signs, runway markings and lighting requirements that apply to LAHSO.
2.6 Identify the requirements for pilots to participate in LAHSO.
2.7 Identify the aircraft performance categories defined for participation in LAHSO.
2.8 State the conditions under which LAHSO may be offered by air traffic control to pilots.
2.9 State the methods of notification that LAHSO is in progress.
2.10 State the “read back” requirements for pilots engaged in active participation in LAHSO.
2.11 Establish from AIP‑ERSA the landing distance available for LAHSO.
2.12 Calculate the aeroplane landing distance required in dry, wet or downwind conditions, using the procedure set out in AIP.
Appendix 2
Land and Hold Short Operations — LAHSO practical test
Elements
Performance Criteria
1 Determine the landing distance for LAHSO is adequate for the prevailing conditions
1 Consult the AIP‑ERSA and extract the landing distance available at the destination for LAHSO.2 Landing distance is calculated in accordance with the manufacturer demonstrated landing distance chart and factored in accordance with runway conditions.3 LAHSO conditions are assessed in accordance with the procedure set out in AIP, and acceptance notified using appropriate radio communications with air traffic control.
2 Execute LAHSO
1 Aerodrome signs, runway markings and lighting requirement that apply to LAHSO are identified and complied with.2 Aeroplane is landed by the nominated touchdown point +200 ft (60 metres).3 Aeroplane is stopped within specified runway distance before hold short line — without the use of maximum reverse thrust.4 Abnormal runway conditions, such as wet runway or downwind component, are identified and appropriate procedures are applied to comply with LAHSO requirements.5 Appropriate missed approach procedures are demonstrated.6 Situational awareness is maintained throughout the procedure.
