Plain English Summary

3/10 complexity

This exemption lets Airservices Australia use a specified Wide Area Multilateration Precision Runway Monitor (WAM PRM) to conduct independent parallel approaches at Sydney (Kingsford Smith) Airport in instrument meteorological conditions, by waiving one technical requirement in the Manual of Standards. It applies only at Sydney for runways under 1,525 m separation and requires use exactly as justified in Airservices’ safety case while all other MOS obligations remain in force.
