SCHEDULE - APPLICATION CONDITIONS - Exemption from paragraph 602.128(2)(B) of the Canadian Aviation Regulations

Training Program

1. The private operator or air operator, as the case may be, shall ensure that the pilots-in-command who will be operating under this exemption have received, and continue to receive ground and simulator or flight training that addresses the following subjects within their initial and recurrent training programs:
    
   1. factors that affect altitude loss during the initiation of a missed approach;
       
   2. the relationship between the published missed approach point (MAP) and the position where a missed approach is commenced following a stabilized final approach descent to minimum descent altitude (MDA);

      NOTE: The missed approach climb from a stabilized final approach descent will normally occur some distance before reaching the published MAP

      .
       
   3. the requirement to commence the horizontal (lateral) navigation portion of the published missed approach procedure at the missed approach point (MAP) in all cases;

      NOTE: It is essential for obstacle clearance to delay any turns stated in the published missed approach procedure until the aircraft crosses the MAP.

      
       
   4. the requirement to ensure that any altitudes at step-down fixes between the final approach fix (FAF) and the missed approach point (MAP) are respected;
       
   5. the operation of aircraft computer-generated approach slope systems or other methods of computing stable approach paths to the 50 foot nominal threshold crossing height;

      NOTE: The effects of horizontal position error and temperature on the vertical path, whether it is derived from inertial, barometric VNAV, or altimeter reference, shall be addressed.

      
       
   6. the requirement to verify altitude and waypoint information from a navigation database against an independent source;
       
   7. crew coordination upon reaching MDA and during the execution of a missed approach; and
       
   8. utilization of temperature corrections to MDA and other published altitudes.

Standard Operating Procedures

2. The private operator or air operator shall have approved standard operating procedures incorporating SCDA non-precision approach, and the procedures include a specified amount to be added to the MDA to compensate for the additional height loss during the go-around initiation during approaches where:
    
   1. there is a failure of an aircraft system;
       
   2. the aircraft is above normal maximum landing weight;
       
   3. the aircraft landing weight is limited by aborted landing climb performance; or
       
   4. height loss could be expected to be larger than normal.

Required Aircraft Equipment

3. The private operator or air operator shall ensure that the following aircraft equipment is on board the aircraft and is serviceable at all times:
    
   1. two barometric altimeters;
       
   2. one radar altimeter; and
       
   3. one ground proximity warning system (GPWS), or one Terrain Awareness Warning System (TAWS).
