Thank you, very useful.
I have one question regarding SIB 2023-05 which specifies: "The captain's discretion should be avoided at the airline's operational base and/or its hubs, where standby or reserve crew members should be sufficiently available."
When unforeseen circumstances arise at the airline's operational base, does it mean it is advisable for the captain not to exercise his discretion?

Inconsistency or misinterpretation?
In Oct2022 the definition of LVTO changed to "low-visibility take-off (LVTO)’ means a take-off with an RVR less than 550 m". It was 400m. This is Regulation.
However the AMC's from CAT.OP.MPA.110 kept the previous RVR values of 400m. Am I reading this in the wrong way or someone missed the detail?

Thank you all for your answers, they are really interesting.
Regular SRB are well planned in advance. My question came when we wanted to have an ad-hoc SRB and was very difficult to have all the manager's attendance in short notice.

Hi, I was wondering if some of you operates on aerodromes where GRF does not apply ? also if GRF info is not available, how do you proceed ?

Dear Colleagues,
Under SPO.POL.140, the requirement for complex aircraft at planning stage is to fit in the Landing Distance Available, without application of any coefficient (unlike CAT operation where it needs to be demonstrated to be able to land within 60 or 70% of the LDA)
Then under AMC1 SPO.OP.210 (e), the inflight landing distance calculation requires to apply a factor of 115% to LDTA that needs to fit inside the LDA.
This means that the in-flight calculation becomes more restrictive than the before dispatch calculation, which would be opposite to the normal logic.
Is this a mistake in the regulation, or an omission, or did I miss something?
Thank you for your help
