Blue Spruce Routes?

[GatorAir]

Anyone ever done these? Have had some recent troubles with some Lr35's and single LRN's getting GNE's reported on them.

What is the NAVAID coverage that can be expected?

Are the NDB's capable of navigation beyond the typical 40Nm as several routes show well over 300Nm between two?

Any source docs would be appreciated.

Thanks we have that and several like it. It speaks of using the routes but not how well they work with an FMS that is confused.

I have a lot of time on the blue spruce routes. If you single LRN's have a gps input they should be fine. But as far a MNPS you either have to go low or high. Going low you don't have the range, Going high you can expect unreal climb clearence's to 410 out of BIKF. Stay away from having to use Greenland as a tech stop due to wx and terain. Get good at crosswind landings in Iceland.

As far as a confused FMS you lost me just verify the waypoint info.

Hope this Helps (I know I can't spell)
