Q

What is the take-off minima?

A
  • Ceiling zero feet
  • Visibility 800m, or;
  • Visibility 550m -by day OCTA,
  • day or night in CTR with ATC
    -edge lighting ≤60m and centreline markings or lights
    -SBY PWR with 1sec switchover time on edge lights, or centreline lights if no edge lights

Q

What is an approach ban?

A

The pilot in command must not descend below 1 000 ft AAE where the TDZ RVR is reported by ATC as continually less than the landing minima for the IAP. However, if after passing 1 000 ft AAE, the TDZ RVR is reported by ATC as falling below the landing minima, the approach may be continued.

Q

What is the requirements for a visual approach?

A

Controlled airspace:
Clear of cloud, Vis 5000m, can maintain continuous visual reference to ground or water to aerodrome
Descend not below CTA LL +500’ and not below CAR157.
Maintain last cleared track/heading until within 5NM (or circling area at night), then manoeuvre
for landing runway. If on a STAR and subsequently cleared for visual approach, follow STAR lateral
profile, including any
visual or instrument termination route.

Not below the LSALT/MSA/MDA until the circling area (or 3NM if AD with no instrument app), or:
Within 5NM (7NM if ILS runway) of aerodrome, established not below T-VASIS or PAPI, aligned with
runway
Within 10NM if established not below ILS GS and less than full scale deflection of LOC

12 nm YSSY ILS
