OPERATION
(
FOR AIRPLANES WITH AUTOPILOT IN-
STALLED
)
- Use of GPS for precision approach navigation mode is not allowed.
- Use of GPS is prohibited as primary means for navigation. GPS is approved as
supplemental means for navigation;
- Navigation using of the GPS system as the source of information is limited to
IFR en route, terminal area and non-precision approach mode;
- During IFR in terminal area or non-precision approach using GPS, autopilot or
flight director must be coupled to GPS.
- If RAIM function becomes unavailable in “en route” phase of flight, position
must be verified every 15 minutes using other IFR approved navigation system;
- During IFR in terminal area or non-precision approach using GPS, in case RAIM
function becomes unavailable, the GPS navigation must be discontinued;
- Before an IFR non-precision approach using GPS, the availability of the RAIM
function must be checked to the time and place predicted (RAIM prediction). If
predicted the unavailability of the RAIM function, navigation must be planned
with others approved navigation systems;
- Before a non-precision approach using GPS, the database information must be
compared with that in the approach chart, including transitions, position and alti-
tude of waypoints;
- IFR non-precision approach using GPS must be based on the approved proce-
dures of the equipment database. It cannot be done based on data manually in-
cluded.
