minimums
Smallest allowed quantities
Minimums is the plural of minimum—the lowest amount, level, or limit permitted or possible.
The word appears frequently in contexts involving standards or thresholds: The job has certain minimums you must meet.
In aviation, minimums refers specifically to the lowest altitude or visibility conditions under which a pilot may attempt a landing: We're at minimums—I don't have the runway.
