As a First Officer in your airline (feel free to state the airline) what are the
limitations on;

- operating as Pilot Flying in Low Vis conditions (take-off/approach/landing)?

Capt Only for cat II/III

- calling for and executing a Rejected Take-off?

Either can call, f/o can initiate (cancel power, select reverse) but Capt MUST take control.

- landing/take-off in adverse weather conditions, eg. x-wind/contaminated
runways/wind shear/etc?


FO's limited to 10 knots xwind component, capt only for windshear and contaminated runways and for any destinations nominated capt only in ops manual)


- challenging/demanding approaches like circling approaches/Cat C airfields?

F/os can circle, and do so quite well!

no tiller on P2 side, but Capt only as policy
Capt signs techlog and all other legal docs.
