| Description | Due to the costs of implementing two-segment approaches with special purpose computers, and the fact that such systems rely on special ground equipment not generally in use today, it is useful to consider the possibility of adding a two-segment approach capability to area navigation (RNAV) systems. The addition of the capability to provide two-segment approach navigation in an RNAV system which already interfaces with the standard instrument landing system is estimated to cost $1430 per aircraft. This includes the cost to add an approach progress display, to make necessary modifications to RNAV software, and to develop special approach plates. |
