39
Q

During visual circling, descent below the circling MDA may only occur when the pilot

A

Maintains the aircraft within the circling area
maintains a visibility along the intended flight path not less than the
minimum specified on the chart for the procedure
maintains visual contact with the landing runway environment
Not below 1000’ HAA Company
To descent point

40
Q

Missed Approach - Standard Procedures 1.9.1 A missed approach must be executed if

A

a. during the final segment of an instrument approach, the aircraft is not maintained within the applicable navigation tolerance for the aid in use; or
b. during an instrument approach and below MSA (as specified on the IAL chart) the performance of the radio aid becomes suspect, or the radio aid fails; or
c. visual reference is not established at or before reaching the MAPT or DA/RA Height from which the missed approach procedure commences; or
d. a landing cannot be effected from a runway approach, unless a circling approach can be conducted in weather conditions equal to or better than those specified for circling; or
e. visual reference is lost while circling to land from an instrument approach.

41
Q

Visual Approach by Day

A

Within 30NM of that aerodrome at an altitude not below the LSALT/MSA for the route segment, the appropriate step of the DME or GNSS Arrival Procedure, or the MDA for the procedure being flown, the aircraft is established;
(1) clear of cloud;
(2) in sight of ground or water;
(3) with a flight visibility not less than 5,000M or, in the case of a helicopter, is able to proceed under helicopter VMC, or the aerodrome is in sight; and

(4) subsequently can maintain (1), (2) and (3) at an altitude not less than

(i) if in controlled airspace – 500FT above the lower limit of the CTA unless a clearance is received from ATC to depart and re-enter controlled airspace during the descent;
and
(ii)the minimum height prescribed by CASR 91.265 or 91.267 as relevant to the location of the aircraft

42
Q

Visual Approach by Night

A

At an altitude not below the LSALT/MSA for the route segment, the appropriate step of the DME or GNSS Arrival Procedure, or the MDA for the procedure being flown, the aircraft is established:
(1) clear of cloud;
(2) in sight of ground or water;
(3) with a flight visibility not less than 5,000M; and
(4) subsequently can maintain (1), (2) and (3) at an altitude not less than:
(i) in controlled airspace – 500FT above the lower limit of the CTA unless a clearance is received from ATC to depart and re-enter controlled airspace during descent; and
(ii) one of the following:
– route segment LSALT/MSA; or
– the appropriate step of the DME/GNSS Arrival procedure, or
– if being vectored – the last assigned altitude.
until the aircraft is:
– for an aerodrome with an authorised instrument approach procedure that the flight crew members of the aircraft are capable of using – within the prescribed circling area for the category of aircraft or a higher category, where the limitations of the higher category are complied with, or VAA–H, as applicable and the aerodrome is in sight;
or

–
–
–
for an aerodrome without an authorised instrument approach procedure that the flight crew members of the aircraft are capable of using – within 3NM of the aerodrome reference point, and the aerodrome is in sight; or
within 5NM (7NM for a runway equipped with an ILS/ GLS) of the aerodrome, aligned with the runway centreline and established not below “on slope” on the T-VASIS or PAPI; or
within 10NM (14NM for Runways 16L and 34L at Sydney) of the aerodrome, established not below the ILS/GLS glide path with less than full scale azimuth deflection.
