Ppruners don’t forget that FMS BARO - VNAV approaches also require TEC. (TERPS and PANS OPS procedures). Don’t always believe the computers!

The rough correction is a 4% height increase with every 10C below standard or from the tables given in earlier links. Baro VNAV approaches are not permitted when the temperature is below the lowest published temperature for the approach, but a conventional LNAV approach is allowed. Reference “From Takeoff to Landing” a look at the criteria for the design of instrument procedures; Olle Akerlind (Ex SAS) and distributed by Honeywell EGPWS team.
