NAV03.2 — RNP 1 in TMA Operations
—
NOTE 1: System improvements for controller support tools which may be required are covered by other Implementation Objectives like ATC12.1 (MTCD, conflict resolution support info and MONA), ATC02.9 (STCA) and ATC02.8 (APW).
NOTE FOR MILITARY AUTHORITIES: It is the responsibility of each military authority to review this Objective IN ITS ENTIRETY and address each of the SLoAs that the military authority considers RELEVANT for itself. This has to be done on top and above of the review of "MIL" SLoAs which identify actions EXCLUSIVE to military authorities.

Expected Performance Benefits
- Safety
- Increased situational awareness and indirect benefit to both ATC and pilot through reduction of workload during RNP operations.
- Capacity
- Increased capacity through efficient and improved systemisation of SID/STARs based on RNP 1, particularly on curved paths using Radius to Fix functionality.
- Operational efficiency
- Reduction in fuel burn and potential to reduce track miles through optimised TMA procedures using the Radius to Fix Functionality.
- Cost efficiency
- -
- Environment
- Emissions and noise nuisance reduced by use of optimal flight procedures and routings.
- Security
