Jeppesen to Provide RNP Consultant Services

FAA granted approval to Jeppesen, Englewood, Colo., to provide qualified Required Navigation Performance (RNP) consultant services to the aviation industry. The approval, Jeppesen said, allows it to guide airlines and other aircraft operators through FAA’s RNP operations approval process.  Jeppesen will also offer RNP services for non-U.S. operators looking to implement RNP operations worldwide. In August, Jeppesen was invited by FAA to participate in a pilot program that will allow third-party vendors to develop, quality assure, flight test and maintain RNP flight procedures within the United States.
