Jeppesen Intends to Develop Public RNP Procedures
Jeppesen says it will participate in a FAA
pilot program that allows third-party vendors to develop
RNP (required
navigation performance) flight procedures in the U.S.
Once it reaches a qualified status, the
Boeing subsidiary says it will be able to complete all phases of designing,
implementing and maintaining new public RNP procedures within the U.S. National
Airspace System, including flight inspections and tests.
Earlier this year, the FAA designated
Naverus its first qualified consultant to help airlines and other operators gain
approval for RNP operations. 08-24-2007. |
