Limitations & General Flashcards
narrow runway ops (30m)
- runway centerline shall be clearly visible in the prevailing conditions
- dispatch to/from less than 45m wide is not allowed in case of nose gear steering inoperative or 1 thrust reverser inoperative
- if alternate is available with at least 45m wide runway - diversion to that alternate shall be performed in case of jammed or restricted flight controls, trailing edge flap asymmetry, leading edge flap/slat asymmetry, or loss of system A or B hydraulics.
- dispatch from/to runways less than 30 meters wide is prohibited
