Takeoff minima 500m or 550m

ColinGray created the topic: Takeoff minima 500m or 550m

Dear all,

A question I got from a friend asks what the TO minima for a 767 is from YSCB RWY35.
a) nil ceiling and 800m
b) nil ceiling and 500m

I chose a) despite CA having rwy edge lights spaced 60m. My new AIP gives that minima as 550m

The memo answer was b)
Did this change a few years ago, from 500 to 550m?

Thanks
Colin

Hi Colin,

The AIP states the minima as zero feet and 550m (AIP 1.5 4.3.2) assuming the other conditions are met (edge lighting etc).

I assume this must have changed since the question you refer to was written. Is it one of our questions? If so I'll take a look at it.

Cheers,

Rich
