PBN - Where are we now?

• Current PBN concept– Globally harmonized navigation specification based

on existing national or regional requirement– Objective: facilitation of standardization with the aim

to reduce cost, confusion and accelerate implementation

02 July 2012

PBN - Where are we now?

• PBN concept developments– Builds on existing requirements– Adds new specifications to address operational

requirements– Curtails the proliferation of number of navigation

specifications

PBN - Where are we now?

• Updated PBN Manual - highlights

• RNP 2– High continuity (typically oceanic/remote applications)– Low continuity (typically continental applications)

• RNP 0.3– Intended for slow moving aircraft

• Radius-to-fix (RF) (terminal and approach)• Fixed Radius Transitions (FRT) (en-route)• Advanced RNP (umbrella navigation specification)• High level ops approval guidance• Improved implementation process description
