Question 5

What applies to Alternates when GNSS is to be used at both airports?

Answer 5

Primary and Alternate airports must be 100 nm apart. 75 in Nunavut, Quebec, & Labrador north of 56° latitude.

GNSS are considered non-precision at alternate (so 800-2 best case). However, if you have to fly to the Alternate, fly to published minimums.
