Hi,Will I am learning how to fly the 737 using the excellent tutorial by Ryan Maziarz and not being a pilot, I was wondering where would I found the radio altitude setting for a particular airport? In the tutorial we have to set the radio altitude to 100 feet, where is that 100 feet comming from:“ Set the landing minimums by clicking the outer EFIS control panel MINS knob to its RADIO setting and then turning the smaller inner knob down to 100 feet radio altitude – you’ll see the number in the lower right corner of the PFD. We’re a category D aircraft on this approach (approach airspeed above 141 knots) and the published minimum is 100 feet for a Category II ILS.”Would I find this info from the airport chart?Any help would be appreciatedPierre

if you get the ils chart for Rwy 18R at EHAM you will see the information in the bottomas you can see i have highlighted the CATII Cat D aircraft is 100ft radio, you can can also see i have wrote in red, BARO and radio, if there are 2 readings the bold one is always BARO and the one is brackets is RADIO, if there is only 1 like the 100 then it is radio, i hope that makes sense, and the figure underneath is the RVR, so the RVR for 100ft is 300m

Sorry Dave, I don't agree. The 190 is the baro min sure enough but the (200) is the military baro min. The radio min showing on the plate is to the left for CATII indication RA 100. I think you will always see the RA prefix for radio alititude on approach charts.

Please let this thread end with this. . .

OK i got it now this was completely new to me, so thanks I will look at the RA info in the runway chartPierre
