   - ceiling only non ILS
   - LVO alternate must be CAT1.
   - Below minima, file 2 alternates. Fuel for furthest, Weather with alternate criteria, alternate on CFP

Alternate

• 1 RW 400ft buffer, 1500m. 2RW 200ft buffer, 800m.
• Seperate runway with their own approach.
• LVO not allowed.
• BKN OVC ceiling considered regardless.
• LOC only if 2 or more runways or another procedure available to back up.
• As long as above ACTUAL minima, PROB TEMPO INTER can be ignored.
• Large difference in opposite end of runway will create two minimas on CFP

Island reserve

• 1 hour 45 minutes.
• Destination forecast 30 minutes before and 2 hours after planned arrival.
• Required minima to be ALTERNATE criteria.
• Fuel = Alternate + Reserve = 2 hours normal cruise consumption over head destination.

Enroute alternate/ EDTO nominated

• If mandatory fuel required. FILE ENROUTE ALTERNATE, with ALTERNATE criteria.
