What is the alternative method for establishing minimum flight altitudes for VFR day operations of other-than-complex motor-powered aircraft?

The alternative method is provided in AMC1.1 CAT.OP.MPA.145(a), which states that the safety objective is satisfied if the operator ensures that operations are only conducted along routes or within areas for which safe terrain clearance can be maintained, taking into account factors such as temperature, terrain, and unfavourable meteorological conditions.

What factors must an operator consider to ensure safe terrain clearance when establishing minimum flight altitudes under this AMC?

The operator must take into account factors such as temperature, terrain, and unfavourable meteorological conditions.

What is the safety objective that must be satisfied when using this alternative method for establishing minimum flight altitudes?

The safety objective is satisfied if the operator ensures that operations are only conducted along routes or within areas for which safe terrain clearance can be maintained, considering temperature, terrain, and unfavourable meteorological conditions.
