5 - PROCEDURES 113 190-00357-00 Rev H Selecting an LPV Approach For this example, we’ll use a flight from Eugene Oregon (KEUG) to Salem, Oregon (KSLE) and select the RNA V runway 31 approach.
5 - PROCEDURES 114 190-00357-00 Rev H LNA V Approach 5. Sixty seconds prior to reaching the F AF (LO TKE), the unit will check the required Horizontal Alarm Limit (HAL) and V ertical Alarm Limit (V AL) to ensure the GPS positio n integrity is within limits to complete the LPV precision approach.
5 - PROCEDURES 115 190-00357-00 Rev H 6. Capture the glideslope as you would an ILS glideslope . 7. As you cross LO TKE, the destination sequences to CUKEV and then the MAP (“RW31”, the runway threshold). With the needle on the external CDI (or HSI) centered, fly toward the MAP , observing the altitude minimums dictated by the approach plate .
5 - PROCEDURES 116 190-00357-00 Rev H will begin to automatically rescale in an an- gular fashion. T his will allow the LP approach to be flown in the same fashion as a standard localizer approach. At 2.0 nautical miles from the F AF , CDI scaling is tightened from up to either 2° or 0.
5 - PROCEDURES 117 190-00357-00 Rev H RNA V Approach Procedur es The 500W -series allows for flying LNA V , LNA V/VNA V , LNA V + V , LP , and LPV approaches accor ding to the published chart. HSI Annunciation Description Minimums L/VNA V Lateral Navigation/V ertical Navigation.
