Italia458:
I have to give in! You are correct in what you say, but only with regard to Canadian rules! The original question was with regard to Doc 8168, however.
I have just had a short look at TP 308, and I must say that I'm amazed at how much different from DOC 8168 it is. Even basic things like primary and secondary areas are very different, Speeds for categories of aircraft are completely different, etc, etc.
How on earth there can be that great differences in criteria from country to country within the very international world of aviation is beyond me.
I am a PANS-OPS designer, so I do know 8168, but I will certainly not call myself an expert on TP 308 (or TERPS, for that matter).
Why can't we all agree on using one set of rules? Isn't that why we have ICAO?
