Section 2. Performance-Based Navigation (PBN) and Area Navigation (RNAV) Area Navigation (RNAV) 1-2-1. General a. Introduction to PBN. As air travel has evolved, methods of navigation have improved to give operators more flexibility. PBN exists under ... umbrella of area navigation (RNAV). The term RNAV in this context, as in procedure titles, just means “area navigation,” regardless of the equipment capability of the aircraft. (See FIG 1-2-1.) Many operators have upgraded their systems to obtain…
