"landing distance available" means the distance from the point on the surface of the aerodrome above which the aeroplane can commence its landing, having regard to the obstructions in its approach path, to the nearest point in the direction of landing at which the surface of the aerodrome is incapable of bearing the weight of the aero- plane under normal operating conditions or at which there is an obstacle capable of affecting the safety of the aeroplane; "specified", in relation to an aeroplane, means specified in, or ascertain-
able by reference to→
(a) the certificate of airworthiness in force under the Order in

"take-off run available" means the distance from the point on the surface of the aerodrome at which the aeroplane can commence its take-of run to the nearest point in the direction of take-off at which the surface of the aerodrome is incapable of bearing the weight of the aeroplane under normal operating conditions.

(b) the landing weight of the acroplane shall be taken to be the weight of the aeroplane at the estimated time of landing allow- ing for the weight of the fuel and oil expected to be used on the flight to the aerodrome at which it is intended to land or alternate aerodrome, as the case may be
(c) where any distance referred to in paragraph (3) has been declared in respect of any aerodrome by the authority respon sible for regulating air navigation over the territory of the Contracting State in which the aerodrome is situate, and is the case of an aerodrome in the Colony, notified, that distance shall be deemed to be the relevant distance.
