(See AMC1 ACNS.C.PBN.101, GM1 ACNS.C.PBN.101 and GM2 ACNS.C.PBN.101)
(a) Table 1 indicates the applicable airworthiness requirements to be met by the airborne RNP system installation in order to obtain airworthiness approval for the RNP specifications addressed in this CS. Applicants should select the target PBN specification from the left column and then follow the respective row to the right.
(b) Subsection 2 provides also certification criteria for RNAV 10, RNAV 5, RNAV 2 and RNAV 1.
(c) The RNP 0.3 specification is applicable to helicopters.
Table 1: PBN
specifications — Mandatory and optional airworthiness requirements
Subsection 1: General applicability for performance-based lateral navigation
Subsection 2: Generic specifications for performance-based lateral navigation
Subsection 3: Supplementary specifications for lateral navigation in final approach
Subsection 4: Supplementary specifications for vertical navigation
Subsection 5: Supplementary specifications for vertical navigation in final approach
Subsection 5 includes criteria for RNP APCH approaches to LNAV/VNAV minima, either supported by barometric VNAV or by SBAS VNAV, as well as for RNP APCH approaches to LPV minima, which are supported by SBAS VNAV only. An applicant may opt to apply for approval of the RNP system to conduct operations to LNAV/VNAV minima, LPV minima or both.
Subsection 6: Supplementary specifications for RNP authorisation required (AR)
Subsection 6 includes criteria for RNP AR APCH and RNP AR departures. An applicant may opt to only apply for approval for RNP AR APCH.
Subsection 7: Supplementary specifications for applications for advanced RNP (A-RNP)
Subsection 8: Supplementary specifications supporting radius to fix (RF)
Subsection 9: Supplementary specifications supporting fixed radius transition (FRT)
Subsection 10: Supplementary specifications supporting parallel offset
[Issue: CS-ACNS/2]
EASA airworthiness approval for airborne RNP systems requires meeting specific criteria based on the desired Performance Based Navigation (PBN) specification. Requirements cover lateral and vertical navigation, including approaches like RNP APCH and RNP AR. Helicopters utilize RNP 0.3. Optional features like RF, FRT, and parallel offset have supplementary specifications.
