COURSE INTRODUCTION

Instrument Flight Procedure is a complex field of activity. Air traffic volume grows worldwide, terminal airspaces are more and more congested, navigation technology evolves and environmental issues are certainly not decreasing. More and more the procedure design expert has to address many issues and good and continuous training become one of the key elements in creating safe and efficient instrument flight procedures. For aviation management student it is vital not only to know the guidance material such as flight navigation, flight planning and aviation law, but more and more also other related topics such as visual flight rules, instrument flight rules, airspace, flight plan, fuel and oil requirement, standard separation minima, ATS routes and holding procedures.

TEACHING AND LEARNING METHODOLOGY

Lectures:
Lectures are the most effective technique to deliver knowledge to the students. We can use slides, cross questioning and discussion tools to make it more effective. Always revise previous lecture before starting any lecture and conclude our lecture nicely after every lecture.

Assignments: Assignments play a very effective role in improving comprehension

level of students. We can assign assignment related to studies of organizations, & browse the Internet for companys websites, to the students and then check properly to verify the effectiveness of your lecture. 5. Grading and criteria:

Research/case studies Topic Start Due Integrating GBAS and RNP: Continental Airlines Case Study

Objectives This presentation will study the fusion of RNP and Ground Based Augmentation Systems (GBAS) which can create a curved path, multi-mode approach. GBAS supports NextGen Airspace Architecture and provides a mechanism to fly a non-linear trajectory to a precision approach with a future path to autoland. This session will provide an in-depth orientation on GBAS and GPS Landing Systems (GBAS/GLS). Key learning points include: Reliability and efficiency of GBAS Standard equipment on B737NG, B787, B747-8, A380 and future A350s How GBAS is runway independent and an outstanding solution for flood, hurricane and typhoon prone locations Boeing fully supports Performance Based Navigation as a key component of the NextGen development process and modernization of the national air space. During this session we will address the steps and initiatives that Boeing is leveraging to promote and foster RNAV/RNP and ADS-B. Discussion points will focus on: Avionics and new aircraft development Retrofitting Performance standards and operational readiness Learn how some of the industrys leading airports are capitalizing on the value of PBN to improve efficiency Quality Curriculum Designing

RNAV/RNP Approach and Departure Procedures Pioneering RNP Flight Validation at Alaska Airlines Alaska Airlines introduced the application of RNP technology during the mid 90s to help aircraft land in remote and geographically challenging airports in the state of Alaska. The airline has since become the first airline to gain FAA approval to conduct its own RNP flight validation, laying the groundwork for faster RNP procedure approvals. To date, Alaska has implemented RNP procedures into 23 airports throughout its system, nine of which were developed at Alaska Airlines. The airline hopes to add five more RNP approved airports in 2009. This session will highlight the airlines current and upcoming PBN initiatives RNP is a central tool among the NextGen technologies that will produce fuel savings, emissions reduction, relieve airspace congestion, and noise relief and safety improvements. In Brisbane, Australia, Air Traffic Managers used a combination of existing airspace automation tools, RNP, GPS/RNAV procedures and new ways of thinking about air traffic management to begin to engineer and sequence arrivals that yielded fuel and emissions savings for all participants. To derive benefits, RNP designers considered aircraft types, existing traffic flows, air traffic control issues, noise sensitive areas on the ground and airport and aircraft operator issues before designing the final path. Once the initial paths are designed, it is important for RNP procedure designers to monitor and improve the paths over time as aircraft equipage, operator capabilities and community interests evolve. Takeaways of this presentation include: RNP is a central component of NextGen technologies With proper coordination between stakeholders, and Quality Curriculum Designing and significantly reduce airspace congestion and delays.

Extracting Benefits from RNP in the Near-Term A MultiDisciplinary Approach

Lesson Plan Guideline Superior University Lahore.

careful design, RNP benefits can be extracted from airspace immediately; even in mixed equipage environments RNP design involves more than creating a navigation path in space; it involves a thorough understanding of operator, regulator, air traffic control and community issues Once RNP procedures have been designed, they must be monitored and improved over time to continually optimize for increased benefits Demonstration Flights and Route Development Southwest Airlines successfully completed its first RNP demonstration flight on March 8, 2009. In support of the FAAs Roadmap for Performance-Based Navigation, Southwest is investing $175 million during this six-year project to implement RNP procedures, retrofit aircraft and train pilots. The demonstration flight yielded exceptionally promising results quantifying RNPs value and potential for achieving superior emissions, fuel-burn reduction and greater aircraft operating efficiency. During this session, you will learn about Southwests most recent PBN initiatives including short-term and longrange objectives. Learning points will address: RNP and new pilot training versus recurrent pilot training Considerations with crew pairing, i.e. one pilot qualified and one is notTraining requirements take away from approval process (CBT is nice but one on one is better) Training requirement determinations Utilizing computer based training and a procedures trainer RNP training data collection and record keeping
