22
Q

Take off minima

A

reported weather is equal or above the minimum prescribed by 1 CAD. In the absence of 1 CAD orders, take-off are not permitted unless the reported ceiling and visibility/RVR are equal to or above the lowest HAA/HAT and visibility for a usable published approach to a usable landing runway at the departure aerodrome.

23
Q

Requirement for no IFR alternate

A

Destination aerodrome weather limits, which do not require an alternate are the IFR flight of 3 hours or less, when the lowest ceiling and visibility forecast for the destination (duration + 1 hour after ETA) is at or above 3000ft and 3 miles vis

24
Q

400, +200
1, +1/2

25
Q

What if there is no published approach at alternate

A

forecast Wx for the ETA must permit a visual descent from the IFR minimum enroute altitude and a VFR approach/landing

26
Q

Alternate with no TAF

A

Lowest ceiling and visibility, based upon a GFA for the ETA must be 1000 feet above highest published HAA for the approach flown and visibility 3 miles

General, Spinal, Epidural = 7 days
Local or regional anaesthetic = 12 hours
Immunization, smallpox revaccination = 36 hours
Routine desensitization injection (allergy) = 24 hours
Blood donation = 72 hours
Alcohol = 12 hours before flight, 8 hours before duty
Exposure to abnormal pressure = 12 to 48 hours

28
Q

Take off alternate criteria

A

a. Aircraft can maintain the published climb gradient at the take off aerodrome with one engine out
