48
Q

Utilising of vertical visibility?

A

When the VV is reported instead of cloud condition, the value of VV can be treated as height of CLG

49
Q

METAR AUTO?

A

METAR AUTO is not reported to the ATC and is of different quality to a normal METAR therefore:

  1. ) Do not use QNH from METAR AUTO use FM ATC unit/ ATIS
  2. ) Use visibility (except RVR), weather phenomenon, ceiling and amount of cloud as a material of synthetic analysis for reviewing, planning and preparing flight plan, not for judgement of company minima in flight.

METAR AUTO at KADENA (RODN) or YOKOTA (RJTY) are based on both visual and automatic observation and so can be treated as normal METAR.

52
Q

When should you confirm the crosswind for Take-Off?

A

The Capt shall confirm that the reported wind data is within the specified value at the time of recieving the take-off clearance.

When should you confirm the crosswind for Landing?

A
  • The captain shall confirm the reported wind data is within the specified value at the time of recieving the LDG clearence.
  • If it exceeeds at LDG clearance can continue and re check at 500ftAFE
  • However can continue and land if crew can judge that the airplane can land safely with normal manipulation.
