What are the minimums for ILS Cat 1? The minimum decision height for Category I operations is 60 metres (200 feet) for both ICAO and FAA. Runway Visual Range (RVR) is the distance over which a pilot of an aircraft on the runway's centreline would see the runway surface markings or lights delineating the runway or identifying its centre line.
How far out can you intercept ILS?
In general for the ILS, the glideslope intercept will be at the approximate position of the outer marker or 4-7 miles from the threshold.
What is the 1 in 60 rule ILS?
The 1 in 60 rule is a simplified way to calculate an aircraft's drift angle in flight. If an aircraft has drifted 1 nm. off track after 60 nm's, its drift angle is 1°.
What is the 1% rule in aviation?
In aviation medicine, the 1% rule is a risk threshold that is applied to the medical fitness of pilots. The 1% rule states that a 1% per annum risk (See also risk management) of medical incapacitation is the threshold between acceptable and unacceptable.
