# §125.379. Landing weather minimums: IFR.

- (a) If the pilot in command of an airplane 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 certificate holder's operations specification are increased by 100 feet and one-half mile (or the RVR equivalent). The MDA or DA/DH and visibility minimums 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)](#a) may be reduced (not to exceed 50 percent) by substituting one landing in operations 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.
- (c) Category II minimums, when authorized in the certificate holder's operations specifications, do not apply until the pilot in command subject to [paragraph (a)](#a) of this section meets the requirements of that paragraph in the type of airplane the pilot is operating.
