AWOPS Requirements for landing

[Zeffy]

Expat --

Per the Advisory Circular excerpted below, FAA considers mid and rollout readings as advisory-only information.

Do JAR-OPS specify the method to be used by the operator to determine if the aircraft speed will be < 60 kts (Indicated or GS?) at the end of the TDZ?

Thanks,

Zeffy


AC 120-29A Appendix 7:

e. Required RVR Reporting Equipment. The certificate holder shall not conduct any CAT II operation, unless the following RVR reporting systems are installed and operational for the runway of intended landing:
(1) For authorized landing minimums not less than RVR 1600, the touchdown zone RVR reporting system is required and must be used. This RVR report is controlling for all operations.

(2) For authorized landing minimums less than RVR 1600, the touchdown zone and the rollout RVR reporting systems are required and must be used. The touchdown zone RVR report is controlling for all operations and the rollout RVR report provides advisory information to pilots. The mid RVR report (if available) provides advisory information to pilots and may be substituted for the rollout RVR report if the rollout RVR report is not available.
