ICAO PANS-OPS Instrument Procedures Design

You will be to gain the competencies to perform the duties of a procedure designer. The course comprises 2 modules which covers the theory and applications of ICAO Document 8168 Procedures for Air Navigation Services (PANS-OPS). It also examines the required applications of electronic geographical databases and computer-aided techniques. Each module can be taken as a stand-alone course.

Module 1: ICAO PANS-OPS Instrument Procedures Design: General Criteria and Conventional Practices

Module 2: ICAO PANS-OPS Instrument Procedures Design:  Criteria for RNAV, GNSS and RNP

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Apply general criteria for procedure design and specific criteria for non-precision approaches using conventional navigation and precision Performance Based Navigation (PBN) approaches
• Identify the latest trends in the formulation of instrument procedures
• Understand the theory of the various criteria specified in ICAO Document 8168 in the design of instrument procedures 

Who Should Attend

This course is recommended if you require in-depth knowledge of the principles and applications of instrument procedures design standards and criteria in air navigation.
