135.225IFR: Takeoff, Approach and Landing Minimums

If takeoff minimums are specified for the take-off airport, a pilot may not depart under IFR when the

  • weather conditions are less than the takeoff minimums specified for the takeoff airport or in the certificate holder’s operations specifications.
  • At airports where straight-in instrument approach procedures are authorized, a pilot may depart under IFR when the weather conditions reported by the facility are equal to or better than the lowest straight-in landing minimums, unless otherwise restricted, if:

–The wind direction and velocity at the time of takeoff are such that a straight-in instrument approach can be made to the runway served by the instrument approach
–The associated ground facilities upon which the landing minimums are predicated and the related airborne equipment are in normal operation; and
–The certificate holder has been approved for such operations (see Ops Specs)
The following slide illustrates the decision-making process when determining Takeoff Minimums
