When making an instrument approach at the selected alternate airport, what landing minimums apply?

When making an instrument approach at a selected alternate airport, the landing minimums that apply are those published for the specific type of procedure being used, which is what option C states. Different approaches, such as precision approaches (ILS) and non-precision approaches (NDB or VOR), have distinct landing minimums based on their design and operational characteristics.

For instance, a precision approach typically has lower minimums compared to non-precision approaches due to the increased accuracy and reliability of the guidance provided. Therefore, when planning to land at an alternate airport, it is essential to consult the published minimums for the specific instrument procedure you intend to use in order to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and maintain safety during the approach and landing phases of flight. This understanding also reinforces the importance of reviewing approach charts thoroughly prior to flight, as they contain crucial information on visibility and ceiling requirements necessary for a successful landing.
