Overseas Alternate Requirements.
Can anybody advise how Oz operators determine whether one has to plan an alternate when operating overseas. We are just about to start overseas charters but unlike Oz there is nothing on the approach plates to indicate when one needs to plan an alternate.
Some pilots think that if the destination has an ILS, weather below the non precision approach minima requires an alternate and if it only has non precision approaches weather below circling minima requires an alternate.
I can't find anything in the AIP's, does anybody have answers to this? The company has not provided any info on this.
Thanks
