hello
Could you please refresh my memory
when you prepare a flight , how do you check weather mimnima for:
T/off airport
landing airport
Take off alternates
Landing alternates
enroute alternates
I found that some dispatchers just check the "best" minimums for the airport:
for instance, taking the jeppesen charts, the airport has got an ILS, then they take those minima
others "degrade themselves"(it might not be proper english), that is, in the above example they would assume ILS is out, the they would take minima for a VOR approach for instance
some do that for all airports , somme only for landing airports......I found that everybody does it differently; The only thing they agee on is to take RVR for t/off airport
What is the correct way ?
I haven't found anything in the EUOPS
Thanks for your answer
