less than 200 ft;

(b) an approach procedure with vertical guidance;

(c) a non-precision approach procedure;

 which meets the PANS-OPS Vol II, or ICAO Doc 9905, requirements for a straight-in approach procedure.

8.1.6.1B Method for determining minimum RVR or visibility — straight-in approach procedure aligned with runway centreline. Subject to paragraph 8.1.6.1D, for a straight-in approach procedure mentioned in paragraph 8.1.6.1A, which is a straight-in approach procedure aligned with runway centreline, the minimum RVR, or visibility, for the procedure is the greater of the following:

(a) ;

(b) the value, as an RVR or visibility, stated in column 1, 2, 3 or 4 of Table 8.1, relevant to the type of ALS in relation to a runway stated in the first row of the table.

8.1.6.1C Method for determining minimum RVR or visibility — other straight-in procedures. Subject to paragraph 8.1.6.1D, for a straight-in approach procedure mentioned in paragraph 8.1.6.1A, which is not a straight-in approach procedure aligned with runway centreline, the minimum RVR, or visibility, for the procedure is the greater of the following:

(a) ;

(b) 1 500 m.

8.1.6.1D Use of RVR minimum. For paragraphs 8.1.6.1B and 8.1.6.1C, an RVR minimum may be used only for a procedure to approach a runway equipped with electronic RVR measuring equipment.

8.1.6.2 Maximum RVR or visibility. For a straight-in approach procedure, the maximum RVR, or visibility, for the procedure is 5 km.

8.1.6.2A Minimum Values for Precision Approach Category II and III procedures. For an approach type mentioned in column 1 of Table 8-1A, the minimum RVR values approved for precision approach Category II or III procedures are those in column 2 of the Table which, subject to the runway capability conditions mentioned in column 3 of the Table, correspond to the approach type.

                                  In addition to the runway capability requirements for operations with a minimum RVR of 350 m, the runway has:
                                      (a) runway centreline lighting with a longitudinal spacing that applies to a runway intended for use in RVR conditions less than a value of 350 m; and
