Operational flight plan and the requirements of air traffic services
No person may operate an aircraft in _______________________ unless authorized by CAAP for such operations.
Performance-Based Navigation
specification airspace
No person may operate an aircraft in Performance-Based Navigation
specification airspace unless authorized by _____________for such operations.
CAAP
is a method of aircraft navigation that
allows for more precise and efficient routing compared to traditional ground-
based navigation systems.
Performance-Based Navigation (PBN)
It defines the performance requirements for navigation systems and procedures, enabling aircraft to
navigate accurately along predetermined paths in three dimensions: lateral,
longitudinal, and vertical.
PBN specifications
It helps ensure the safety, efficiency, and
integrity of the airspace system by verifying that operators have the necessary qualifications, equipment, and procedures to conduct PBN procedures in compliance with regulatory requirements.
