The ICAO approach classifications.


instrument licences are divided between 2D and 3d IAP endorsements, and there are cases where pilots do not have access to a 2D IAP, or in some remote areas no access to 3D IAP.

2D IAP are divided between Lateral guidance with Course Deviation Indicator and Azimuth Guidance via a relative bearing indicator.

An instrument rating initial issue must test a 2D IAP [1] .

2D IAP covers:

  1. NDB
  2. VOR and LOC (if you have shown competency conducting VOR approaches, we consider you skilled enough to conduct LOC approaches)
  3. DGA (DME/GNSS arrival)
  4. RNAV GNSS LNAV (RNP LNAV) or RNAV GNSS LP (RNP-LP)

3D IAO covers:

  1. Precision: ILS with LOC and GS

3D does not cover:

  • RNAV GNSS VNAV even if your aircraft system displays GS due to advisory limitations and the lack of IAP minimas published in Australia

Recency requirements to conduction an IAP:

  • 3D IAP - an approach must have conducted in last 90 days
  • 2D IAP - lateral and approach must have conducted in last 90 days
  • Azimuth IAP - an Azimuth approach must have been conducted in the last 90 days
