RNAV/RNP

Question 1

Which of these is a key advantage of RNAV over traditional navigation?

(A) RNAV provides a fixed path for an aircraft to fly over.
(B) RNAV allows the aircraft to fly the shortest route within a network of available waypoints.
(C) RNAV allows for greater variations from the defined flight path.

Answer 1

B

(D) +/-2 NM for 95% of the flight time

Answer 2

C

Question 3

How is RNP specification different from an RNAV specification ?

(A) RNP does not allow an aircraft to fly a flexible patch.
(B) RNP requires on-board performance monitoring and alerting equipment.
(C) RNP requires the aircraft to fly over station-referenced navaids.
(D) RNP does not require conformance to a specific navigation performance.

Answer 3

Answer 7

A

Question 8

True of False. As part of en-route procedures, always use a lateral deviation indicator, flight director, or autopilot in the lateral navigation mode.

Answer 8

True

Question 9

True or False. Do not fly an RNAV 1 or RNAV 2 SID or STAR unless retrievable by route name from the on-board navigation database and conforms to the charted route.

Answer 9

True

Question 10

True or False. In RNP 4 operations, when separation standard is 30 NM lateral and/or longitudinal, CPDLC and ADS-C systems are also required.

Answer 10

True
