Aero Academic
The CASA legislative instrument that sets the syllabus and standard for every Part 61 flight crew knowledge exam in Australia.
MOS Schedule 3 is Schedule 3 of the Part 61 Manual of Standards, a legislative instrument made under CASR Part 61 that defines the syllabus for every flight crew licence knowledge examination in Australia. It is organized into numbered units — for example, Unit 3.2.1 Meteorology — each specifying the exact knowledge a candidate must demonstrate for a given licence.
Every question in a CASA theory exam must be traceable to a specific MOS Schedule 3 unit; a question that cannot be tied to a syllabus unit is not a legitimate exam item. This is why serious exam-prep material cites the MOS unit directly rather than a textbook page — the MOS, not any single textbook, is the actual legal syllabus.
Because CASR Part 61 and its MOS are periodically amended, candidates and training providers are expected to work from the current version. Aero Academic maps every CASA question in its bank to the MOS Schedule 3 unit it examines, rather than an arbitrary internal topic label.
