- The pilots must compare any procedures/route retrieved from the
FMS database with those published on the charts. Differences
between the charts and the FMS information up to 3 degrees are
acceptable.
- For airplanes equipped with Load version prior to Load 25 (Load 15
to 23), RNP operations are prohibited after December 31, 2015 due
to magnetic variation tables’ expiration date. For airplanes equipped
with Load version 25 and on, RNP operations are prohibited after
December 31, 2020 due to magnetic variation tables’ expiration
date.
- For operations using RNP 1 (including P-RNAV) to RNP less than 2,
the use of Flight Director is required.
- For operations using RNP 0.3 to RNP less than 1, the use of GPS
and Flight Director is required.
- Operations requiring RNP less than 0.3 are not approved.
- RNP AR approach operations with Missed Approaches requiring
RNP less than 1.0 are not approved.
- For airplanes Pre-Mod. SB 170-31-0040 (LOAD 23.1), RNP AR 0.3
procedures with RF legs smaller than 1.25 NM radius are prohibited.
- The use of VNAV requires the respective FD vertical guidance mode
to be active.
- The use of FMS Speed requires the respective FD vertical guidance
mode to be active.
- The use of the VNAV is prohibited when the respective FD vertical
guidance mode is other than VNAV, unless pilots adjust the
ALT SEL to each altitude constraint in the Flight Plan.
- The use of GPS is limited to areas where GPS is approved. De-
selection of GPS should be performed in other non-approved areas.
- Prior to flight using the FMS for IFR navigation, a minimum of one
VOR, DME, and IRS must be verified to be installed and operational.
Also, any appropriate ground facilities (VOR, DME) that are utilized
by the procedures to be flown must be verified as operational using
an approved method (NOTAM, etc.).
- If GPS RAIM is annunciated as not available during terminal, en-
route, or remote/oceanic operation, the pilot must monitor FMS
guidance data and crosscheck against raw data from an alternate
source (i.e. VOR, DME, or IRS).
