Exception for unpaved runways

In plain language

If the runway is unpaved (e.g., grass or dirt), you can use the less restrictive 5 km / 50m / 100m limits from paragraph 1°, even if the runway is longer than 1200 meters.

Requirement as structured

If a runway is unpaved, the less restrictive proximity conditions of paragraph 1° apply instead of paragraph 2°, even if it is longer than 1200 meters or has instrument procedures.
