There is certainly much room for improvement on the part of the regulator for this procedure. Certainly not a standard plate or terminology, leading to the confusion. Some of the waypoint altitude data is conflicting.
With a RF turn, it is defined as AR. I am not sure how HK is with RNP certification, if they follow ICAO, or have their own version with exemptions...
As it is RNP 1, and the turn radius is large enough, there shouldnt be any reason one cant fly it with the FD and stay within containment....or why one wouldnt just let the box fly this, if able.
I would note the first waypoints (PORPA/ROVER) have an altitude of 5000 at 5nm....
If what terpster says is correct, the procedure is not in the Jepp database, then you go no where fast...
BTW...for reference, there is no RNP departure criteria....FAA or ICAO.....
