AMC8 NCC.OP.110 Aerodrome operating minima — general ED Decision 2022/012/R CONVERSION OF VISIBILITY TO CMV — AEROPLANES The following conditions should apply to the use of CMV instead of RVR: (a) If the reported RVR is not available, a CMV may be substituted for the RVR, except: (1) to satisfy take-off minima; or (2) for the purpose of continuation of an approach in LVO. (b) If the minimum RVR for an approach is more than the maximum value assessed by the aerodrome operator, then CMV should be used. (c) In order to determine CMV from visibility: (1) for flight planning purposes, a factor of 1.0 should be used; (2) for purposes other than flight planning, the conversion factors specified in Table 14 should be used.
