PERFORMANCE BASED NAVIGATION (PBN)
Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) training course is developed in accordance with requirements of SPA.PBN.105 and CAT.OP.MPA.135 (a)(b) and ICAO Doc. 9613.
PBN training is intended to provide the knowledge and competence related to RNAV and RNP operation for the different navigation specifications defined in the PBN manual (ICAO Doc. 9613).
The course can be delivered either together with Company Conversion training or separately.
Items of different PBN specifications are refreshed and reinforced during yearly recurrent training as part of Ground and Refresher and STD training and checking.
Wherever practicable, standard FSTD training events and OPCs should include departures, arrivals and approaches using any of the PBN (RNAV/RNP) specification available.
