I think they got it very WRONG in moving lots of navigational LOs from Gen Nav into Flt Planning. You PLAN on the ground and EXECUTE that plan in the air. Any corrections will be navigational solutions, Descent strategies for example come under the heading of `VERTICAL NAVIGATION` as far as I `m concerned.
The parameter MONITORED in flight is FUEL - hence the importance of CAP697.
Yes, of course you keep an eye on tracking etc but corrections (e.g. 1 in 60 rule) are NAVIGATIONAL techniques, not planning techniques.
