Really appreciate the help all

Thanks C100 for the info on Baro VNav. As IRRenewal says "RNP" is in a way a state of mind, and not a physical 'box' (like that of a DME or VOR).

Its just hard getting my head around the 'concept' of it (I only have 120 hrs TT) and working on this as a uni student sure makes it an interesting challenge.

In regards to the certification of RNP is there anything from ICAO that is out there? I have some documents from the FAA and CASA which discusses the certification, however I cant find anything from ICAO

Its nice to hear from you guys (actual pilots) what your thoughts on it are rather than listening to the works of Naverus and aviation authorities. If anyone has reports/essays on RNP that have been written from a pilots point of view it would be awesome if you could link them or PM me.
eg; Required Navigation Performance (RNP)

thanks
