reg ular vision needs to take over. The new proposal is to allo w use of this to the threshold. Synthetic Vision Guidance System (SGVS) is not the same thing; it is more comprehensive tha n just what you are looking at. It can add other features like obstacles. § A dvanced RNP Taskforce 5 (TF 5). This was called advanced PBN by TF5. The focus will be scalability (RNP4 to 2 to 1 to AR approach as an example, box will automaticall y do this), RF and parallel R F. NBAA has a problem with requiring advanced RNP legs due to their costs for upgrading equipment. SWA pushed for RNP AR to be able to be used by everyone so they shoot an RNP approach and then if you ar e capable, use the AR minimums. § EoR TF Analysis res ults, implicati ons and options for next steps. Research shows that starting with TF first fits what the user equipage and needs are right now and then move to RF. Users that have equipped for RF have a problem with this as they think it slows the progress to get to RF quicker. § WAAS/LPV – what's next with new crit eria publication estimated March 20 16 . § 2 - 18 months expected for incorporation into production capability . § Demo of 1 - 2 procedures under new criteria may be a good planning target . § PBN Route S tructure. There are over 100 ATS r outes (V & J) supported by VORs. There are 215 PBN routes (Q & T) and increasing designed to replace most of the VOR routes. Other projects ar e Atlantic Coast Route Project. The PBN Route Structure ConOps proposes 5 R egion al Q Route Working Groups: East Coast, Mississippi Valley, Big Mountain, Western Pacific and Alaska, Offshore, Caribbean and Hawaii. The PBN Route Structure ConOps also proposes 3 T Route Working Groups (one per service area): Western Service Center, Centr al Service Center, Eastern Service Center . o Metroplex § Brief the plan for next steps and how it relates to PBN Strategy execution . § Environment and community outreach changes and impacts brief (Metroplex and beyond ). § VOR/DME MON – the DME part has been added as some are still needed while some VORs will leave. § Waiver to 7110.65 5 - 9 - 7 "Simultaneous Independent Approaches – Dual and Triple." Support Dual EoR and ILS Triple runway configuration. § Noise mitigation usin g variable de scent profiles on PBN approach. This discussion started because of something that is occurring in Europe and whether or not w e need to address this subject. This started as a noise mitigation to ge t around noise sensitive areas.
