What is RNP-5 and RNP-10?

[boxjockey]

You are still required to do a celcal check when changing controlling agencies, even if you are CPDLC and ADS, eg. Tokyo to SFO, etc.

I've flown RNP approaches but I am not familiar with these terms. From what I could find on the web, RNP-5 and RNP-10 are used for en-route separation on oceanic routes.
Can anyone shed more light on this?
Do you have a good source for more info?

Thanks

Kind of scary you are flying approaches that you do not understand or are qualified for. I suggest you do your homework and get some required training so you will actually understand what is required for all RNP flying.

Thanks for the smart ass response there floatplane. I know that RNP approaches are usually .15, .2, or .3. I know how RNP approaches work and the requirements. If you knew how to read you'd see that I am asking about RNP-5 and RNP-10. As others have kindly responded and explained, these are used for enroute operations in non-radar environments (oceanic), nothing to do with approaches.
Now that you have put me on my place, I hope to someday grow up and be just like you.
It is stupid comments like yours that have turned an informational forum into nothing more than childish bickering.

I think that the SAAAR approches require an RNP of .11 or greater, Oceanic Airspace requires RNP 4 or higher, In the U.S we use RNP 2 or higher, Europe enroute RNP 5 (B-RNAV) and some SIDS and Stars require RNP 1. Other Managed approaches require RNP .3. Man I wish all those controlling agencies would just get toguether and settle on 1 set of numbers. lol. uba757

Here you go Lumax. Just a place to start, you might also reference your company FOM if you are conducting these en-route operations they should be covered there as well. I would also suggest contacting your training department. Have a nice day!
