ED Decision 2022/012/R
OPERATING PROCEDURES — EFVS OPERATIONS TO A RUNWAY
For EFVS operations to a runway, the following should apply:
(a) The approach should be flown using a certified EFVS-A or EFVS-L as identified in the AFM.
(b) The pilot flying should use the EFVS throughout the approach.
(c) In multi-pilot operations, the pilot monitoring should monitor the EFVS-derived information.
(d) The approach between the final approach fix (FAF) and the DA/H should be flown using vertical flight path guidance mode (e.g. flight director).
(e) The approach may be continued below the DA/H provided that the pilot can identify on the EFVS image either:
(1) the approach light system; or
(2) both of the following:
(i) the runway threshold identified by the beginning of the runway landing surface, the threshold lights or the runway end identifier lights; and
(ii) the TDZ identified by the TDZ lights, the TDZ runway markings or the runway edge lights.
(f) Unless the aircraft is equipped with a certified EFVS-L, a missed approach should be executed promptly if the required visual reference is not distinctly visible and identifiable to the pilot without reliance on the EFVS by the following height above the threshold:
(1) the height below which an approach should not be continued if natural visual reference is not acquired by the crew as stated in the AFM; or
(2) if the AFM does not specify such a height, 100 ft.
EFVS approaches to runways require certified EFVS-A/L, pilot flying uses EFVS, pilot monitoring monitors, vertical guidance from FAF to DA/H, and specific visual references to continue below DA/H.
