The PBN concept links the Area Navigation application to Oceanic, Continental En route, Terminal Area, and Approach navigation specifications and supporting technologies and ensures worldwide harmonization of Area Navigation. Application of these technologies enhances airspace capacity in line with the projected aviation demand, ensuring fuel saving and reduced environmental impact. ICAO Assembly vide resolution A36/23 and A37/11 urged member States to implement PBN (RNAV and RNP) for all phases of flight in accordance with the ICAO PBN concept laid down in the Performance Based Navigation Manual (Doc 9613). APANPIRG/18 and 44th DGCA Conference also fully supported the ICAO PBN program. Pakistan is a signatory to the Chicago convention and is accredited to ICAO Asia/Pacific Regional Office. The first version of Performance Based Navigation Implementation Plan (Roadmap) was developed in May 2009 in compliance to initiatives of APANPIRG, DGCA Conference and ICAO Assembly and was subsequently reviewed in 2012. The PBN Roadmap provided phased strategy for PBN implementation which encompasses instrument approaches, Standard Instrument Departures (SID), Standard Terminal Arrival (STAR) operations and enroute operations in line with Regional PBN Implementation Plan. Pakistan has shown good progress during the medium term ending by 2016. About 90% of the planned work on PBN (GNSS) Instrument Approach Procedures for instrument runway ends have been completed / implemented. Work on en-route phase is also in progress and almost all major air traffic flow routes supporting air traffic flow between Europe and Asia have been transformed to PBN routes based on RNAV10 and RNAV5 PBN specifications. The revised PBN Plan (Ver.3.0) encompasses Pakistan’s actions to accomplish targets for strategic objectives for the triennium 2017 – 2019 and beyond. The PBN implementation plan is also intended to assist aviation stakeholders i.e. airline operators, general aviators and regulators in understanding the application PBN for meeting operational goals with the focus on addressing future efficiency and capacity needs while improving the safety of flight operations and reducing environmental impacts (LIAQUAT ALI SHAHZAD) Director Operations Dated: _______________2017 15/08/2017 ii PLN-001-OPAT-3.0 PERFORMANCE BASED NAVIGATION IMPLEMENTATION (2017-19) Contents RECORDS OF AMENDMENTS AND CORRIGENDA ............................................................................................... i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ..................................................................................................................................... ii GLOSSARY OF TERMS AND ABBREVIATIONS/ACRONYMS ..........................................................
