When are reduced NP landings prohibited?
•Reduced NP landings are prohibited when:
- Landings are accomplished at the Solid Bug – VREF (ICE).
- Performance requires Bleeds OFF.
- Tailwind component exceeds ten knots.
- Windshear is reported or suspected.
- Runway is contaminated or braking action is less than good.
- Landing performance is derived from the Emergency and Abnormal Checklist manual section 15, Adjusted Landing Speed and Distance Tables.

FSM 1.4.6
What is the definition of Icing conditions?
Definition of Icing Conditions:
Icing conditions exist when:
• On the ground (taxi and takeoff roll to the point of lift-off): SAT is 10°C or below when precipitation in any form is present, or fog with visibility of one mile or less; also when operating on ramps, taxiways, or runways where surface snow, ice, slush, or standing water may be ingested by the engines or freeze on engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes. M
• In flight (after lift-off to landing): SAT is 5°C or below and visible moisture is present in any form. Ice accretion on aerodynamic surfaces is not considered to exist at temperatures of -40°C or below. M
