## Official Task objective

To determine the applicant exhibits satisfactory knowledge, risk management, and skills associated with go-around/rejected landing with emphasis on factors that contribute to landing conditions that may require a go-around.

## Knowledge elements

- **CP.V.H.K1** — Situations and considerations on approach that could require a go-around/rejected landing.
- **CP.V.H.K2** — Effects of atmospheric conditions on a go-around or rejected landing.
- **CP.V.H.K3** — Aircraft configuration changes and techniques for the go-around.
- **CP.V.H.K4** — Go-around/rejected landing procedures, the importance of a timely decision, and appropriate airspeeds for the maneuver.
- **CP.V.H.K5** — Wind correction techniques.

## Risk management elements

- **CP.V.H.R1** — Recognition of the need for a go-around/rejected landing.
- **CP.V.H.R2** — Aircraft performance.
- **CP.V.H.R3** — Application of power.
- **CP.V.H.R4** — Aircraft configuration.
- **CP.V.H.R5** — Collision hazards.
- **CP.V.H.R6** — Low altitude maneuvering, including stall or controlled flight into terrain (CFIT).
- **CP.V.H.R7** — Distractions, task prioritization, loss of situational awareness, or disorientation.

## Skills elements

- **CP.V.H.S1** — Make a timely decision to go-around/reject the landing.
- **CP.V.H.S2** — Apply the appropriate power setting for the flight condition and establish an aircraft configuration necessary to obtain the desired performance.
- **CP.V.H.S3** — Establish a positive rate of climb and the appropriate airspeed ±10 knots.
- **CP.V.H.S4** — Configure the aircraft, as appropriate.
- **CP.V.H.S5** — Maintain the ground track, heading, or course appropriate for the conditions, or as specified by air traffic control (ATC) or the evaluator.
- **CP.V.H.S6** — Notify/coordinate with air traffic control (ATC) or evaluator instructions as required.
- **CP.V.H.S7** — Complete the appropriate checklist(s).
- **CP.V.H.S8** — Use single-pilot resource management (SRM) or crew resource management (CRM), as appropriate.
- **CP.V.H.S9** — Use runway incursion avoidance procedures, if applicable.

## Difficulty methodology

Difficulty calibration is ongoing for this Task. Observed difficulty is a privacy-thresholded check-ride.ai mock-oral practice proxy, not an FAA practical-test pass or fail rate. Underlying sample sizes and the private reporting threshold are not published.

## Use in practice

A mock examiner can ask a pilot to explain the published elements, apply them to the configured aircraft and airport context, identify risks, and defend a decision. Practice prompts are not represented as actual FAA examiner scripts or predictions of the questions a candidate will receive.
