Division (d) F1

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

At the planning stage, for each IFR flight, the operator must select and specify in the operational and ATS flight plans one or more aerodromes so that two safe-landing options are available during normal operation when:

  1. (1)

    reaching the destination aerodrome; or

  2. (2)

    reaching the point of no return, to any available FE ERA aerodrome during isolated aerodrome operations; a flight to an isolated aerodrome must not be continued past the point of no return unless a current assessment of weather conditions, traffic and other operational conditions indicates that a safe landing can be made at the destination aerodrome at the estimated time of use. To use an isolated aerodrome as a destination aerodrome, the operator must have prior approval from the CAA.
