48 SUPPLEMENT TO ANNEX 6, PART II (SIXTH EDITION) UNITED STATES 1 General The does not accept any provision of Annexes 2, 6, 10 or 11 or any other Annex as a Standard or Recommended Practice as applicable to State aircraft. In accordance with Article 3(a) of the Convention on International Civil Aviation, the Convention and its Annexes are not applicable to State aircraft. In so far as any provisions of Annexes 2, 6, 10 or 11 address the operation or control of State aircraft, the considers such provisions to be in the nature of a special recommendation of the Council, advisory only, and not requiring the filing of differences under Article 38 of the Convention. Chapter 1 Definitions Note. The expresses distances in terms of feet and miles rather than metres. A significant number of North American operators and aircraft are not equipped with metric unit displays. Approach and landing operations using instrument approach procedures. Category I (CAT I) operation. For a Category I operation, the requires a decision height (DH) of not less than 200 ft (60 m) and either visibility of not less than one-half mile (800 m) or a runway visual range of ft (732 m) (RVR ft (548 m) with operative touchdown zone and runway centre line lights). Category II (CAT II) operation. The requires that Category II provide approaches to minima of less than 200 ft (60 m) decision height/2 400 ft (732 m) runway visual range to as low as 100 ft (30 m) decision height/1 200 ft (365 m) runway visual range. Category IIIB (CAT IIIB) operation. The criteria are the same as those adopted in Annex 6, Part II. However, the runway visual range is expressed in feet less than 700 ft (200 m) but not less than 150 ft (50 m). Minimum descent altitude (MDA) or minimum descent height (MDH). The does not use the term MDH (or height above aerodrome) to describe an altitude or height in a non-precision approach or circling approach below which descent must be made without the required visual reference. Chapter 3 3.5* The pilot-in-command is not required to have available on board the aeroplane information concerning search and rescue services. Chapter 4 General In addition to the flight preparation requirements of Annex 6, Part II, Chapter 4, the requires -registered large or turbine-powered multi-engined general aviation, passenger-carrying aircraft, wherever operated, to adequately secure and stow food, beverage, and passenger service equipment during aircraft movement on the surface, take-off and landing.

49 2 UNITED STATES SUPPLEMENT TO ANNEX 6, PART II (SIXTH EDITION) Except for large and turbine-powered multi-engined aeroplanes, the does not require the pilot-in-command to ensure that crew members and passengers are familiar with the location and use of emergency exits, life jackets, oxygen dispensing equipment or other emergency equipment provided for individual use Except for large and turbine-powered multi-engined aeroplanes, the does not require the pilot-in-command to ensure that all persons on board are aware of the location and general manner of use of the principal emergency equipment carried for collective use The does not require a destination alternate aerodrome when the weather at the aerodrome of intended landing is forecast to have a ceiling of at least ft (600 m) and a visibility of at least 3 miles (4.8 km). In addition, standard alternate aerodrome minima are prescribed 600 ft (185 m) ceiling and 2 miles (3.2 km) visibility for precision approaches, and 800 ft (243 m) ceiling and 2 miles (3.2 km) visibility for non-precision approaches b) Under regulations, the forecast period for the destination alternate aerodrome is from one hour before to one hour after the estimated time of arrival. In addition, the minima for ceiling/visibility at the aerodrome of intended landing are ft (600 m) and 3 miles (4.8 km); that is, when at least such minima exist, no alternate aerodrome is required In addition to the Standard prescribed in Annex 6, Part II, 4.6.4, the prohibits a pilot from taking off a -registered large or turbine-powered multi-engined general aviation aeroplane if there is frost, snow, or ice adhering to critical systems, components and surfaces of the aircraft The pilot-in-command is not required to ensure that all persons on board the aircraft during an emergency are instructed in emergency procedures The does not specify the authority, qualifications or competency of persons permitted to taxi aeroplanes on the movement area of an aerodrome * The has no provisions concerning aircraft refuelling with passengers on board * Chapter 6 General In addition to the aeroplane instruments and equipment Standards prescribed in Annex 6, Part II, Chapter 6, the requires that all -registered turbojet-powered aeroplanes, wherever operated, be equipped with an altitude alerting system or device. The also requires that all transport category aeroplanes used in air commerce in the and all -registered transport category aeroplanes used in air commerce outside the United States must use an aural speed warning device The requires that all large and turbine-powered multi-engined general aviation aircraft of registry have the following emergency equipment in addition to the equipment specified in Annex 6, Part II, 6.1.3: two fire extinguishers in the passenger compartment of aircraft accommodating 30 or more passengers; a crash axe for aeroplanes accommodating more than 19 passengers; a portable megaphone for aeroplanes seating more than 60 but less than 100 passengers, and two megaphones for aeroplanes with a seating capacity of more than 100 passengers.
