RNAV Approaches Simplified: A Guide for New Pilots

Pilot Institute

Before RNAV, pilots had to rely on radios (NAVAIDs) and antennas on the ground such as VORs (Very High-Frequency Omnidirectional Range) and NDBs (Non-Directional Beacons). Most RNP approaches (RNP APCH) start with RNP 1 accuracy and get even tighter as you get closer to the runwaydown to RNP 0.3 on the final approach.

Piper PA-32 Cherokee Six Navigation equipment includes a Garmin GNS-530W GPS navigator and two VOR receivers for secondary navigation. An autopilot and Aspen primary flight display reduce workload on long flights. Phoenix Approach Control gave us a few delay vectors before turning us onto final approach.
