Why do we have to derive Alt mins when landing mins are used if a decision to divert is made ?

Derived alternate minimums using Ops Spec C055 are done PRIOR to the flight leaving. This is necessary to figure out legal weather requirements for choosing an alternate for preflight planning, and also if weather changes enroute. Once the decision to divert is made, you're correct that the crew uses landing minimums printed on the approach chart.

If I had an ILS 35L and VOR 35L approach, given they have different identifiers (navaids), could I use those two approaches for the 2NAV rule? Or would I not be able too since it’s the same runway

Thank you for watching! No, you could not use the 2 navaid rule for this, because they are the same exact runway.

That is a great topic idea - what checkride are you thinking about? I do have an oral prep for the instrument checkride: kzitem.info/news/bejne/l6mnk2uKiYakl4I which might be of use to you.

Another thing important to take into consideration when deriving alternate minimums is whether or not the aircraft is WAAS-equipped. If it is, then you can plan an RNAV approach at BOTH your alternate AND your destination. If it is NOT WAAS-equipped however, you MUST have a WORKING ground based navaid approach available at EITHER your destination OR your alternate. This is something dispatchers at say Southwest have to deal with alot. We have WAAS on our entire fleet at my company so this is one less thing we have to worry about. Just something that is sometimes overlooked:)

Thanks for making an excellent point about this! It is definitely a factor that some companies must consider for deriving mins. I am glad you made that clarification!
