GPS Approach OP-SPEC 100 vs OP-SPEC 620

Post by vectorvictor2020 »

Hello all,

With regards to ops-spec 100 and 620 what minimums are you allowed to fly? My understanding is for ops spec 100 only LNAV minima may only be flown. For 620 there are different levels dependant on the equipment installed in the aircraft?

So a more basic question would be, if a company would like to fly an LPV what do you need?

Ops spec 100 still allows for WASS approaches. Ops 620 is essentially an update of Ops Spec 100 and Ops spec 100 is grandfathered in with your existing equipment. If you add new equipment you will require 620. When applying for 620 you might as well add Ops Spec 612 (RNAV 1 and RNAV 2). If you meet 620 you will meet 612 and if you apply for them at the same time is costs nothing more.

That's the only one I've been able to find as well, but 620 isn't on the list...
