ICAO GLOBAL PLANNING INITIATIVES, DOC 9750

GPI 5 : RNAV&RNP (PERFORMANCE BASED NAVIGATION): The incorporation of aircraft advanced capabilities into the navigation system infrastructure

GPI 7: DYNAMIC AND FLEXIBLE ATS RTE MANAGEMENT: The establishment of more flexible and dynamic route systems on the basis of navigation performance capabilities , aimed at accommodating preferred flight trajectories

GPI 21: NAVIGATION SYSTEMS: Enable the introduction and evolution of performance based navigation supported by a robust navigation providing an accurate, reliable and seamless global positioning capability

Seamless ATM System Performance Based Regional Air Navigation Implementation Plan

• Optimize ATS route structure in en-route and terminal airspace

• Implement RNP approaches

• Improve ATS demand and capacity balancing

• Enhance civil/military coordination and cooperation (flexible use of airspace)

• Align upper airspace classification

• Improve ATM situational awareness

PBN in Terminal areas

• SIDs and STARs have been implemented in many CAR States

• States consider implementation of continuous descent operations (CDO) on STARs, starting from top of descent in the upper airspace, to connect directly from the en-route RNAV or conventional routes to the instrument approach procedure.

• RNAV / RNP approach procedures have been implemented in several international airports
