The MNPS Concept
1.3.1 In the NAT Region, the requirement fora given standard of navigation performance has long been recognised. It was because of such a requirement that the concept of a MNPS was introduced into allow fora reduction in track spacing from 120 to 60 NM. In effect, MNPS was the forerunner to
RNP, though unlike RNP it not only specifies the position accuracy that an aircraft is required to achieve, but it also takes into account the availability and reliability of navigational information by setting out a requirement for the carriage of specific navigational equipment.
