HI All.
Clarifying what IAW wrote. That is correct. Fokker 100 GNSS mod will do RNP 0.3. But it is been approved for RNP LNAV only ops. Think Fokker services are going for LNAV/ Baro VNAV once that first approval is granted.
Also the system is not approved yet. All F100's operating at the moment are not fitted with GNSS for navigation. The Alliance machines have a stand alone system for RNP LNAV approach.
I believe XR and Alliance now have some ADS-B capable machines, which goes part way toward the approval status of the integrated system. However for Navigation, it is yet to be flight tested.
Cynpil:
Network still 10 aircraft, 5 F100 and 5 B738's (from Qf order to get RNP approved aircraft..mines are demanding!)
Just wondering reference the 738. Isnt that contradictory to what Alan Joyce got Network for? Typically a/c on FIFO ops are low utilisation machines. A new B738 needs to be worked to make $$ back, wouldnt they be getting retired B737 classics?
Regards.
