Question 35

Autoland Required: (bold)

Answer 35

Autoland is required below CAT I minimums.

Furthermore, to minimize the chances of a go around, Frontier 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 II or CAT III autoland.

NOTE: If one of the autoland requirements cannot be met, e.g. strong crosswind, a non-autoland, CAT I
approach may be conducted down to our lowest authorized CAT I minimums, i.e., 1800 RVR or as
published.
