ATR72-500 RNP
I flew ATRs way way back. Could someone tell me what is the ATR72-500 certified to with regards to RNP. I believe that the-600 can do 0.3 RNP but am keen to hear about the -500.

RNP for ATR
For the ATR 42-500 we used RNP 5
|
In other words, BRNAV. Isnīt it?

Hi
HT1000 is capable of RNP 5, RNP-1, LNAV with advisory VNAV not baro VNAV due to "complications" with EASA. |
ht1000 gnss is capable of
enroute = Rnp2 terminal = Rnp1 approach = Rnp0.3 it switches automatically to terminal from enroute when 30 miles short n then just short of FAF it switches to approach RNP. |
Thanks to all who replied. Much appreciated.
So therefore is the -500 approved to fly GNSS approaches but not RNP AR is what I gather. I guess the sales will come to an end soon enough and only the -600 will be offered anyway. |
According to the manufacturers specs..both ATR 72-500 and ATR 72-600 are certified at 0.3 RNP.
|
If I were stuck flying an ATR, RNP would be the least of my worries.

500 can only perform LNAV RNP APCH.
The 600 is SBAS capable with different THALES FMS/GNSS units allowing LNAV, LNAV/VNAV, LPV and LP RNP APCH. Not sure but I think the 600 can do RNP AR APCH. But no CAT III at the moment and no GLS. Anyone know anymore on the 600? |
It has a very strong resemblance to actual work, something I am very averse to. I became a pilot specifically because I have no desire to work for a living.
