Rockhampton's is a pain in the arse. 60m spacing north of the 04/22 and 15/33 intersection, 61m south of it. So where does that leave you legally with regards to take off minima?

The shorter of the runways 04/22, has 60m spacing.

Then just to add to the stupidity, apparently Rockhampton Airport say that they've withdrawn support for take off minima's below 800m's. Exactly what support is that? And why is it that I have all the lighting and marking requirements, plus the survey requirements (according to the RDS), to use 550m visibility, but they say I can't?
