Depending on the level of training of the crew and the airfield lighting etc, between 125m and 500m minima. I have not been to Limoges for ages, but I would guess at 125m.

Limoges has Cat III

Assuming crew LVP qualified take off min is 125 metres (RVR) and, of course, you need a take off alternate.

Looks like helicopter pilots feel a bit uneasy in this kind of weather.

Can go down to 75m for landing, however dunno if RYR has fail operational configured planes.

Ivor, the JAR OPS-3 take off minima are 150m for an airport with IFR departures (or 250m without) so I'm not sure why 2-300m would stop you departing? On the other hand, if you had no 60 minute alternate available because the whole NE of Scotland is fogged out, that's a different story!

Ivor,

You are absolutely right. I have I huge respect for how you handle those things mentioned, inherent to your profession. Do not take me wrong, we have different operation areas and minimums. And we all have our difficult particularities, probably unknown to the other aviators.
I had no offending in mind.

Who are you lot talking to?!








:suspect:

Heh, thats quite funny. I guess the thread starter had his question answered and somehow managed to delete his opening post but not the thread itself?

Having read the thread earlier it makes some sense but coming to it for the first time it must look like somewhat of an odd conversation!

The original question related to a Ryanair T/O at Limoges on a foggy day and the required T/O and landing minima.
