What good is an alternate which can not be used. Suitable and adq are terma used only in etops. Will you file a strip when it is closed.

Here in India the "ALL WEATHER OP's" published by DGCA clearly specifies the aerdrome/airport must be use able by the aircraft and the crew.

If a strip only has a GPS approach and the pilot isnt qulifed for it , he Cannot file it.
