A

An aircraft that fails to arrive at its destination or alternate airport within 30 minutes of the most recent ETA

27

operations have not been conducted
within 90 days

(Scott's note:  I read, if it is night and the airport has no usable instrument approaches you can't go there unless you have had an operation there in the last 90 days, this is contrary to the airport planning flow chart given by guardian)
