GE has entered into a Performance-based Navigation (PBN) Services agreement with LAN Airlines to design and deploy an optimized navigation network at Lima. GE’s PBN Services business will design the optimized arrivals and departures using Required Navigation Performance technology (RNP). RNP is an advanced form of PBN that, for a typical airline, can eliminate an average of 10 nautical miles from the distance an airplane flies on its approach to landing and create significant reductions in annual fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.
