Can anyone on the -380 at Emirates advise if your jets use a RVFP (RNAV Visual approach to JFK 13L (Canarsie)?

I'm working for a company who does NOT have this authority, and trying to find out more info on how and if they can obtain it as well.

Cheers

Yes EK has approval for the RNAV VISUAL 13L/R on the A380 at KJFK.

380:
- Request"RNAVVISUAL13L"or"RNAVVISUAL13R" as required.
- Line select RNV13L or RNV13R from the FMS as required.
-Note that the MISAPs associated with the RNV13L/13R do not apply and a missed approach at any point during the approach from a RNAV Visual Approach must be coordinated with ATC.
-Review conditions and WX Minima on the associated RNAV Visual LIDO Approach Plate.
-Enter/verify RNP of 0.3 in FMS.

-As per OM-A 8.3.2.4.3. enter 300 AAL as BARO MINIMA, corrected for cold weather if required.
-Fly the approach using NAV/FPA (do not use APPCH mode).
-By 300 AAL, disconnect AP, select FDs off, set RWY TRK and complete landing manually.
-In case of missed approach, advise ATC and comply with the clearance issued.

BUT- An RNAV visual approach is NOT an RNAV RNP approach.

Wiz- So? He was asking about the RNAV Visual approach. Aren't you on the 777 anyways? So it cannot possibly affect you. Are you stirring a pot here?

Rex,

Did you notice the thread tittle was "A380 RNAV RNP"?

I thought the thread author may have been under the mis-apprehension that and RNAV visual approaches were the same thing or part of the same approval.

I'd much rather have the A380s approach approvals that the 777s RNAV RNP for what it's worth.
