What is the minimum runway cleared width for the ERJ?
80 feet
What do you use to determine if you can dispatch to your destination?
Look at the approach that you will most likely use. Take the minimums and compare it to the TAF at your ETA. If the minimums for an ILS that you will use are 1/2 SM, then you can go if the TAF is showing 1/2 SM or more. Less than that and you can’t dispatch.
What must you use to determine if you can dispatch if the destination is less than 60 minutes away?
You must compare the current METAR to the TAF. The more restrictive weather is controlling.
When must we have an alternate filed?
- 123 Rule
- No IAP
- RCC less than 3
- Thunderstorms forecast
- Freezing Precipitation
- Alaska with only one suitable runway
- Crosswind component higher than limits
