the expected routing to the destination alternate;
(c) conduct the approach;
(d) land at the destination alternate.
ATC means air traffic control.
CAO means Civil Aviation Order.
certificate holder means a Part 141 operator or a holder of an AOC.
decision point means a point en route at which an aircraft can:
(a) if the flight arrives at the point with adequate fuel to complete the flight to the destination aerodrome while maintaining the required amount of fuel — continue to the destination aerodrome; or
(b) otherwise — divert to an en-route alternate with adequate fuel to complete the flight to the en-route alternate while maintaining the required amount of fuel.
destination aerodrome means the aerodrome to which a flight is planned.
destination alternate means an alternate aerodrome at which an aircraft may land if it becomes either impossible or inadvisable to land at the destination aerodrome.
Note   The aerodrome from which a flight departs may also be a destination alternate for the flight.
EDTO means an extended diversion time operation as defined in CAO 82.0 as in force from time to time.
en-route alternate means an alternate aerodrome at which an aircraft may land in the event that a diversion becomes necessary while en route.
Note   The aerodrome from which a flight departs may also be an en-route alternate for the flight.
fixed fuel reserve means the amount of fuel:
(a) required to fly at 1 500 feet above aerodrome elevation in ISA conditions for the period of time specified for the flight in column 3 of Table 1:
           (i) for a helicopter conducting an I.F.R. flight, an aeroplane or an airship — at holding speed; or
           (ii) for a helicopter conducting an V.F.R. flight — at range speed; and
(b) calculated with the estimated weight on arrival at the destination alternate (or the destination aerodrome when no destination alternate is required); and
(c) which is usable fuel remaining in the fuel tanks until completion of the final landing.
flight commencement means the moment an aircraft vacates its parking position (whether pushed back or on its own power), also known as off-block time, for the purpose of take-off.
holding fuel means the amount of fuel required to fly for the period of time anticipated to be required for holding (taking into account the operating conditions) calculated at the holding fuel consumption rate established for the aircraft for the anticipated meteorological conditions or ISA.
ISA, or international standard atmosphere, means the atmospheric standard as described in ICAO Document 7488 — Manual of the ICAO Standard Atmosphere as existing from time to time.
large aeroplane means an aeroplane with a maximum take-off weight of more than 5 700 kg.
