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 - Visibility of 4000m or 1500m above minima. Whichever is higher. * Secondary power for Nav Aids. * Secondary power for lighting at night. |
