GM4 SPA.LVO.110 Aerodrome-related
requirements, including instrument flight procedures
ED
Decision 2023/007/R
SUITABLE
AERODROMES — ASSESSMENT — PREVIOUS OPERATIONAL DATA PROVIDED BY THE STATE OF
THE AERODROME
(a) As detailed in point (b)(1) of AMC1 SPA.LVO.110, the assessment of the suitability
of an aerodrome, including instrument flight procedures, for the intended
operations, may be made considering previous operational data for the
particular aerodrome, runway and instrument flight procedures.
(b) The following guidance is provided for the
assessment of suitability of aerodromes for LVOs or operations with
operational credits:
(1) If a State provides data related to
airports or runways in its territory that are suitable for CAT II or CAT III operations with a
specific aircraft model or group of aircraft models, those airports or runways
may be considered suitable for the purpose of AMC1 SPA.LVO.110.
Note: A CAT
II or CAT III approved runway does not necessarily mean that the airport is
suitable for the purpose of AMC1 SPA.LVO.110
as the aerodrome’s provisions
may not ensure that the requirements for certain aircraft models are
fulfilled.
(2) If a State provides data related to
airports or runways in its territory that are found suitable for SA CAT I or SA
CAT II, those airports or runways may be considered suitable for the purpose
of AMC1 SPA.LVO.110. Note: In some States the concept
of SA CAT I and SA CAT II may be different from the EU
concept. The operator should consider these differences.
(3) If a State provides data related to
airports or runways in its territory that are approved for CAT II/III operations
but are designated as restricted or non-standard or irregular, those
designated runways should be considered not suitable. The remaining CAT II/III
runways of that State may be considered regular.
(4) A competent authority may provide data
related to airports or runways that can be considered suitable for defined LVOs.
The suitability statement could be credited by operators under the oversight
of that authority.
EASA Low Visibility Operations (LVO) Aerodrome Suitability: Aerodrome assessments for low visibility operations can leverage prior operational data provided by the state. Airports approved for CAT II/III or SA CAT I/II may be suitable, but restrictions or non-standard designations deem runways unsuitable. National authority data can further define suitability for specific LVOs.
