  minimums to the adjacent runway are based on nonprecision criteria and therefore higher than the precision minimums to the primary runway, but are normally lower than the published circling minimums. Circling Approaches Landing minimums listed on the approach chart under ... CIRCLING” apply when it is necessary to circle the airport, maneuver for landing, or when no straight-in minimums are specified on the approach chart. [Figure 10-11] The circling minimums published on the instrument approach chart provide a minimum…

  maneuver the aircraft during the takeoff roll by reference to flight instruments alone with no outside visual reference. With practice, this maneuver becomes as routine as a standard rate turn. The reason behind practicing instrument takeoffs is to reduce ... generated representation of the terrain that lies ahead of the aircraft.
