What's Up?! Know. Learn. Fly. Webinar Series - WAASssss UUUUPPP with GPS and RNAV: Demystifying Modern Navigation from Enroute to Minimums
GPS has transformed the way pilots fly, but how well do you understand what's happening behind the magenta line? Join us for a practical look at GPS, WAAS, and RNAV navigation, from enroute operations and departures to instrument approaches and missed procedures. We'll break down the anatomy of RNAV (GPS) approaches, explain waypoint types and approach minimums, and explore some unique procedures that highlight the capabilities of modern navigation systems. Whether you're a VFR pilot looking to better understand your avionics or an IFR pilot wanting a refresher on RNAV procedures, you'll come away with a stronger foundation for safe and effective GPS navigation. We'll cover: - GPS, RNAV, and WAAS fundamentals - RNAV approach structure and terminology - LNAV, LP, LNAV/VNAV, and LPV minimums - Waypoints, holds, and procedure turns - Common pilot pitfalls and best practices It's more than just pushing Direct-To.
