LPV vs LNAV/VNAV?

Having said that, the advisory vertical path is provided to Garmin, and other avionics vendors, by Jeppesen. That's why I didn't even look in Garmin material. :-) So, assuming no errors on the part of Jeppesen, it doesn't matter whether you are using their chart or NACO's. Whether it matters depends on how much you care about 30 feet. If the GPS box has you begin the Jepp descent angle at the FAWP, then you wind up 30 feet low at the stepdown fix, if I did the numbers right. If my butt were on the line I would be keeping an eye on that stepdown fix. For sure! |
