System minima for non-precision approach aids

<strong>System minima for non-precision approach aids</strong>

An operator must ensure that system minima for non-precision approach procedures, which are based upon the use of ILS without glide path (LLZ only), VOR, NDB, SRA and VDF are not lower than the MDH values given in Table 3 below.
