5. Airspeed ................................................. MAINTAIN 120 KIAS OR GREATER (Recommended)
NOTE
Some RNAV (GPS) or (GNSS) approaches provide a vertical descent angle as an aid in
flying a stabilized approach. These approaches are NOT considered Approaches with
Vertical Guidance (APV). Approaches that are annunciated on the HSI as LNAV or LNAV+V
are considered Nonprecision Approaches (NPA) and are flown to an MDA even though
vertical glidepath (GP) information may be provided. Approaches that are annunciated on
the HSI as LP will not have vertical glidepath (GP) information provided.
6. At the FAF ........................................................................ Descend via GP if LNAV+V approach
Use desired vertical mode to fly the approach’s vertical profile if LNAV approach
Use Altitude Preselect to level off at intermediate altitudes and at the MDA
NOTE
It is recommended to descend at 1000 ft/min or less. Descending at a higher rate or
reaching MDA too far before the Visual Descent Point (VDP) could cause TAWS or GPWS
alerts. If a TAWS or GPWS WARNING is issued, immediately follow the TAWS OR GPWS
WARNING procedure in the EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Section of this AFMS.
CAUTION
The autopilot/flight director will not capture ALT if descending in GP mode.
7. Level airplane in ALT mode at MDA .............................. PRESS NAV button 200 ft above MDA
If airplane is descending via GP, GP will extinguish and PIT mode will be active and
airplane will capture MDA.
8. AFTER LEVELING AT MDA ...................... SET Missed Approach Altitude In Altitude Preselect
