LNAV Guidence on RNAV Approaches

Featured Replies

I know the GLS isn't certified in real-life for Approach procedures but they are there so I might as well use them. Question is; will the aircraft give me vertical guidence on those RNAV approaches? Thanks much!

There is no such thing as FMS based vertical guidance on the J41 - it's purely advisory on the VNAV page. It's not coupled to the FMS because it was never intended or certified for that.

Ok could I "legally" use the FMS lateral nav for RNAV approches but just use the step-down altitudes on the charts to bring me to Minimums?

Essentially, as long as it has a published MDA, that would be fine. You'll note the others have LPV or LNAV/VNAV DAs.Example:http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/1103/05100R1L.PDF

Ya I noticed in the USA they publish Minimums for the different approaches depending on the Equipment the planes has but In Australia they don't thats why I was wondering. They essentially just publish Straight -In, Circling and Alternate Min's

I can't answer for OZ, but up here, as long as the procedure is in the database of the certified unit, you're good to go.

Dear Jetstream41: There are quite a few very experienced J41 sim pilots and a few real ones that hang around here. Please sign your full name per forum rules, and try a new thread or topic with your question.
