Hello,
I cant seem to find the answer to the question and would appreciate if someone can shed some light.
My company OMA says the following :
The minimum Rescue and Firefighting Services (RFFS) requirements in
accordance with ICAO Annex 14/UK, AIP/UK ANO 101, CAP 168 Chapter 8
RFFS, FODCOM 24/2009 and FODCOM 25/2009 are as follows:
B737-800 Passenger/Instructional Flying requirement
is Category 7.
1. RFFS may be reduced as follows:
a. By 1, subject to individual aerodrome approval.
b. By 2, at the discretion of the appropriate aerodrome fire
service, when a part of the facility is temporarily unavailable
due to unforeseen circumstances. This is a temporary
reduction only.
So my question is, is that for planning purposes or does it include inflight? If the Atis announces the category has dropped to cat 6 can you still used that airport?
