AC 120-29A August 12, 2002
CRITERIA FOR APPROVAL OF
CATEGORY I AND CATEGORY II
WEATHER MINIMA FOR APPROACH
Forward. This advisory circular (AC) provides an acceptable means, but not the only means, for obtaining and maintaining approval of operations in Category I and II Landing Weather Minima including the installation and approval of associated aircraft systems. It includes additional Category I and II criteria or revised Category I and II criteria for use in conjunction with RNAV, Required Navigation Performance (RNP), VNAV, xLS, satellite navigation systems (GLS), Head up Displays (HUD), and Category II during certain engine inoperative operations. This revision also updates and incorporates provisions of the former AC 120-29 through Change 3 into the revised AC 120-29A.
This revision incorporates changes resulting from the first steps toward international all weather operations (AWO) criteria harmonization taken by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), European Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA), and several other regulatory authorities. Subsequent revisions of this AC are planned as additional all weather operations harmonization items (AHI) are agreed and completed by FAA JAA, and other regulatory authorities.
