Re: WAAS GPS equipment suffix in a RNAV flight plan ?

by Peter Clark <Invalidi@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 27, 2008 at 06:52 PM

AIUI, AC 90-100A != "RNP" as applied to oceanic airspace etc.  Without
a FSDO letter you're still GLOVZ/C(S) presuming normal non-ADF
equipped with mode C(S) transponder.  See AC 90-96A where I think they
differentiate specifically between ICAO RNP and the stuff they're
doing domestically.

FWIW, I've been assigned an RNAV DP from an MCO area air****t having
filed a domestic ICAO plan with the above equipment codes and the
appropriate NAV/RNVD1E2A1 comment.  Whether that was a fluke or not I
guess remains to be seen.
