Paragraph Functional requirements Explanation<br />
RNAV ATS route from the<br />
database into the RNAV<br />
system by its name is a<br />
recommended function.<br />
However, if all or part of an<br />
RNAV route (not SID or<br />
STAR) is entered by manual<br />
entry of WPTs from the<br />
database, the paths between<br />
the manual entry of WPTs<br />
and the preceding or<br />
subsequent WPTs must be<br />
flown in the same way as a<br />
TF leg in terminal airsp<strong>ac</strong>e.<br />
k) The capability of showing an<br />
indication of RNAV system<br />
failure, including the<br />
associated sensors, in the<br />
primary field of view of the<br />
pilots.<br />
l) For multi-sensor systems, the<br />
capability for automatic<br />
reversion to an alternate<br />
RNAV sensor if the primary<br />
RNAV sensor fails. This does<br />
not preclude the provision of<br />
a means for manual selection<br />
of the navigation source.<br />
m) Database integrity Navigation database suppliers must comply with<br />
RTCA DO-200/EUROCAE document ED 76 -<br />
Standards for processing aeronautical data. A<br />
Letter of <strong>ac</strong>ceptance (LOA) issued by the<br />
appropriate regulatory authority to e<strong>ac</strong>h of the<br />
participants in the data chain shows compliance<br />
with this requirement. Discrepancies that invalidate<br />
a route must be reported to database providers,<br />
and the affected routes must be prohibited through<br />
a notice from the operator to its flight crews.<br />
Aircraft operators must consider the need to<br />
conduct periodic checks of the navigation<br />
databases in order to meet the requirements of the<br />
existing safety system.<br />
n) It is recommended that the<br />
RNAV systems provide lateral<br />
guidance so that aircraft<br />
remain within the lateral<br />
boundaries of the fly-by<br />
transition area.<br />
