Question 276 - Flight Performance and Planning - PPL(H) - Private Pilot License

Flight Performance and Planning - According to the aeronautical chart, Friesach/Hirt (LOKH) has a 707 m grass runway. The preferred runway is 17 due to a surface wind of 180°/10 kt. The required landing distance for your aircraft under the present conditions is 550 m. Considering the NOTAM below, is it safe to plan LOKH as an alternate aerodrome? Use figure (PFP-026)

No, because the applicable NOTAM restriction leaves insufficient landing distance.

Yes, because the published runway length alone is greater than the required landing distance.

Yes, because NOTAM restrictions do not have to be considered for alternate planning.

No, because grass runways may never be used as alternate aerodromes.
