Under what conditions can you do an approach at an alternate with PROP in the TAF of the A/D?
- Always
- If visibility is above 1 mile
- Never
- Only if the weather in PROP meets landing minimum (correct)

Airplane Flight Notes
Alternate Airport Approaches
- A "PROP" show in the TAF of an Alternate Airport (A/D) does not prevent an approach; the approach can be made if the weather conditions meet the landing minimum.
Weight and Performance
- The weight shift is 8868.
- The worst-case scenario for aircraft performance is a combination of high temperature, high dew point, and low pressure.
Taxiing in Low Visibility
- If visibility becomes lower than the operator's limit while taxiing, taxiing can be continued if it began before the visibility decreased.
Takeoff Weight Calculation
- The takeoff weight calculation result is 11800.
Landing Weight Calculation
- The landing weight (L/D weight) can be calculated by subtracting the fuel burn from the takeoff weight; in this case, the aircraft's weight is 220000lbs, fuel burn for descend and approach is 1200lbs, and fuel burn per hour is given, so after a one-hour flight, the L/D weight is 196800lbs, considering a TAS of 485kts and a wind factor of 60kts.
