Thanks for the replies and apologies for the absence. Indeed, EU ops doesn't apply anymore. I have digged out the EASA ops. I work with part A, however, wording in it was (purposely) hard to interpret so I did some digging in the rules. Didn't make it any more clear, hence my question on here.
I'm well aware of the 3% ERA! That wasn't my question. My question was: in the planning table it mentions BESIDES the 3% ERA also that the planning minima have to be applied to " alternate required in the planning stage"! What is meant by this? I, unfortunately, disagree with some of the conclusions. After reading some more into the rules and reading over our part A, I do believe they mean the 60 minute ERA by this! Not only have do they have to be adequate, but also in the planning stage, they have to be above the mins in the table.
Any more insights would be appreciated!
