| “Initial results show that the aircraft conform to the path prescribed in the RNP- AR procedure with a standard deviation of less than 20 meters. The wing span of the aircraft is 36 meters.” - ICAO Information Paper presented by Ed Williams, Airservices Australia

| Statistics -
Medium-sized international airport in Australia serving Brisbane, the capital of Queensland -
Averages 400 commercial aircraft movements per day |
| The Trial - Six Tailored RNP approach procedures were developed, three each for RWY01 and RWY19
- 33 RNP capable 737-800 aircraft, 12 of which are also ADS-B equipped
- RNP value of 0.3 used for procedure design:
- Obstacle clearance area extends 1,111 meters on both sides of flight path
- Aircraft required to meet a track keeping navigation performance not to exceed 556 meters on either side of flight path
- Radar, with a position accuracy of 93 meters, does not meet measurement requirements
- ADS-B and differential GPS used to measure and calibrate results
- Status: ongoing
|
| Purpose of Trial - RNP operations at Brisbane airport are being monitored in order to:
- Verify that aircraft in normal revenue operation can comply with the navigation requirement
- Gain insight into aircraft behavior when conducting RNP operations
- Capture statistical data in support of a change to Standards, Rules and Practices
