wind and other weather conditions ex-
pected, to fly to that airport and there-
after to fly for 3 hours at normal cruis-
ing fuel consumption.

§ 125.377

Fuel supply: Turbine-engine-

powered airplanes other than tur-
bopropeller.

(a) Except as provided in paragraph

(b) of this section, no person may re-
lease for flight or takeoff a turbine-
powered airplane (other than a turbo-
propeller-powered airplane) unless,
considering the wind and other weather
conditions expected, it has enough
fuel—

(1) To fly to and land at the airport

to which it is released;

(2) Thereafter, to fly to and land at

the most distant alternate airport
specified in the flight release; and

(3) Thereafter, to fly for 45 minutes

at normal cruising fuel consumption.

(b) For any operation outside the 48

conterminous United States and the
District of Columbia, unless authorized
by the Administrator in the operations
specifications, no person may release
for flight or take off a turbine-engine
powered airplane (other than a turbo-
propeller-powered airplane) unless,
considering wind and other weather
conditions expected, it has enough
fuel—

(1) To fly and land at the airport to

which it is released;

(2) After that, to fly for a period of 10

percent of the total time required to
fly from the airport of departure and
land at the airport to which it was re-
leased;

(3) After that, to fly to and land at

the most distant alternate airport
specified in the flight release, if an al-
ternate is required; and

(4) After that, to fly for 30 minutes at

holding speed at 1,500 feet above the al-
ternate airport (or the destination air-
port if no alternate is required) under
standard temperature conditions.

engine-powered airplane (other than a
turbopropeller airplane) to an airport
for which an alternate is not specified
under § 125.367(b) unless it has enough
fuel, considering wind and other weath-
er conditions expected, to fly to that
airport and thereafter to fly for at

least 2 hours at normal cruising fuel
consumption.

(d) The Administrator may amend

the operations specifications of a cer-
tificate holder to require more fuel
than any of the minimums stated in
paragraph (a) or (b) of this section if
the Administrator finds that additional
fuel is necessary on a particular route
in the interest of safety.

§ 125.379

Landing weather minimums:

IFR.

(a) If the pilot in command of an air-

plane has not served 100 hours as pilot
in command in the type of airplane
being operated, the MDA or DA/DH and
visibility landing minimums in the cer-
tificate holder’s operations specifica-
tion are increased by 100 feet and one-
half mile (or the RVR equivalent). The
MDA or DA/DH and visibility mini-
mums need not be increased above
those applicable to the airport when
used as an alternate airport, but in no
event may the landing minimums be
less than a 300-foot ceiling and 1 mile
of visibility.

(b) The 100 hours of pilot-in-command

experience required by paragraph (a)
may be reduced (not to exceed 50 per-
cent) by substituting one landing in op-
erations under this part in the type of
airplane for 1 required hour of pilot-in-
command experience if the pilot has at
least 100 hours as pilot in command of
another type airplane in operations
under this part.

thorized in the certificate holder’s op-
erations specifications, do not apply
until the pilot in command subject to
paragraph (a) of this section meets the
requirements of that paragraph in the
type of airplane the pilot is operating.
