point (MAPt) must be located at or before the threshold.

        8.1.12.4.2 Where the final approach is not aligned with the runway centre line, the optimum location is the intersection of the final approach course and the extended runway centre line.

        8.1.12.4.3 The MAPt may be moved closer to the FAF to provide obstacle clearance in the missed approach area provided that the MDA/H is not lower than the altitude/height on the design descent gradient at the MAPt.

8.1.13              Table of Operationally Equivalent Values

8.1.13.1         The following metres (m) to statute mile (mile (statute)) or feet (ft) value are deemed to be equivalent for operational purposes.

8.1.14              Special Authorisation Category I Approach Procedures

8.1.14.1         Scope. Paragraph 8.1.14 provides the requirements for designing and publishing an SA Category I approach procedure at a runway with reduced lighting with:
(a)         a DH of 150 ft or higher; and
(b)         a visibility minimum of 450 m or longer RVR.

8.1.14.2         Air Traffic Control. The aerodrome at which the runway is located must be a controlled aerodrome.
Note: Aircraft operators will not be permitted to conduct SA Category I instrument approach operations unless aerodrome control is in operation.

8.1.14.3         Runway Eligibility. An SA Category I approach procedure must not be designed for a runway unless:
(a)         the runway has, or is qualified for, a precision approach Category I ILS procedure; and

(b)         the aerodrome operator has given the designer information that the runway meets the requirements of the Manual of Standards (MOS) – Part 139 Aerodromes for SA Category I, SA Category II, Category II or Category III instrument approach operations.

Note: The specifications for a runway suitable for supporting SA Category I and SA
