Question:
I read the latest LTA (letter to airman, 2008/06/19) for the latest
RNAV flight plan. In the last paragraph, it says
"It is im****tant to communicate your maximum RNAV capability so the
filer can enter information which allows FAA automation to generate
RNAV arrival and departure routes for qualified aircraft."
It seems that a WAAS GPS (such as GNS430W/530W) has qualified RNP for
RANV1 or RNAV2. Therefore, if we have a WAAS GPS, shall we use the
equipment suffix of /R instead of /G ?
If we use /G, will ATC not grant (or affect) the RNAV/LPV approaches
for a WAAS aircraft under the new flight plan?
How about will it affect filing or flying a RNAV STAR/DP ?
(Please read FAA Advisory Circular Information AC 90-100A and AC
90-45A before answer the question.)
In the previous post in 2005, someone said we shall use /G (see
below), is this still true?
Thanks in advance.
