When would an aerodrome require an alternate?

Ceiling is 1000' or less above the landing minima


Visibility is 5km or 2km more than the minima, whichever is greater

How do we determine if an aerodrome is a suitable alternate?

* Weather meets prescribed minima


OR


* Precision Approach:


- Ceiling of 600' or 200' above DA


- Visibility of 3000m or 1000m above minima.


Whichever is higher.



* Non Precision Approach:


- Ceiling of 800' or 200' above MDA
