Question on OKC ILS 17R


Recommended Posts

Im going for my checkride next week so technically Im not rated but Ill give it a shot.  The box where the non-standard TO mins is published has the # sign and the most I can gather is that it has to do with the MALSR lights and equipment in the plane.  It states that the RVR should be increased to 4000 if they are out where the current mins show 1/2 mile.  It also says that RVR of 1/4 mile is authorized with a FD, AP or HUD.


Either that or its a typo?

it means non-standard approach minimums as described in the info box (re inoperative MALSR lights) next to the 'A' black triangle. If you are category E (ie above 165 kts) on an ILS approach, you will note you require a 4000 RVR to attempt the approach. If you are slower, you get the 1/2 mile. The other requirements are applicable to LOC approaches. 


The 'T' black triangle is for non-standard take-off minimums - you get a shorter 1/2 RVR if you have an autopilot, but don't confuse your examiner by telling them that in the approach brief...
