Q

Regarding lower than standard takeoff minimums in the US, for operations below RVR 1600 (500m), all available RVR reports are controlling, extremely long runways (ie. DEN 16R) utilize four RVR sensors (TDZ, mid, rollout and far end) and one fourth far end RVR is reported, it is not controlling and it is not to be used as one of the minimum number of required operative RVR systems. How many operative RB are reporting systems are required for operations below RVR at 1600 (500m)?
