Autoland Approach
ROLLOUT / Taxi Speed
Autoland Required
Autoland is required below CAT I minimums.
Furthermore, to minimize the chances of a go around, Frontier’s policy is to set up and brief for an autoland IF the reported RVR/visibility is at or below 1/2 mile or 2400 RVR AND all of the requirements for an autoland can be met (environmental, aircraft approach capability, ground equipment, etc.), the approach will be briefed and flown as a CAT Il or CAT Ill autoland.
Takeoff and Go-Around Thrust Maximum
All Engines & One Engine Inop
5 minutes
10 minutes
Takeoff at reduced thrust is prohibited
- On slippery or contaminated runways;
- When suspected, reported or known windshear is present (e.g., predictive windshear alerts, or ATC-issued windshear alerts for the departure runway or departure path);
- When a Special Departure Procedure specifies full thrust for takeoff.
