, Ops numbers & things to remember:
CAT operations:
- Height call outs 200ft above threshold elevation with RA
- 1 RA & 2 pilots
CAT Decision Height Guidance RVR
I >200ft 200ft 550m
II >100ft 50ft 300m
IIIA <50ft or none To runway 200m
IIIB <50ft or none To runway >75m
IIIC None To runway No limit
Type of approach Planning minima

MDH is referred to runway threshold elevation & not to aerodrome elevation if threshold is more than 2m below
aerodrome elevation
Planning minima for ETOPS en route alternate aerodrome:
V AT = V SO x 1.3 Type of approach Planning minima
Aircraft category V AT
A <91 Precision approach DA/H + 200 ft
B 91 – 120 RVR/VIS + 800 m*
C 121 – 140
D 141 – 165 Non-precision approach MDA/H + 400 ft*
E 166 – 210 or Circling approach RVR/VIS + 1 500 m
VIS: visibility; MDA/H: minimum descent altitude / height
