Final Leg Distance Requirement - 500m Before Airfield Boundry or RWY Threshold
G'day all,

Can someone please clarify what the horizontal distance requirement is for the final leg. All my BAK textbooks (currently doing GFPT theory) say 500m or more from aerodrome boundary, however after talking to my gliding instructor on the weekend he mentioned something that it has now changed to 500m from the RWY Threshold. Can anyone please confirm, and with a reference - as I don't own the CARs/CAOs.

Cheers

Tim
