SECTION 9
SUPPLEMENT 11
SECTION 1 - GENERAL
The KLN 90B GPS panel mounted unit contains the GPS sensor, the
navigation computer, a CRT display, and all controls required to operate the
unit. It also houses the data base cartridge which plugs directly into the back of
the unit.
The data base cartridge is an electronic memory containing information
on airports, navaids, intersections, SlD's, STAR's, instrument approaches,
special use airspace, and other items of value to the pilot.
Every 28 days, Bendix/King receives new data base information from
Jeppesen Sanderson for the North American data base region. This
information is processed and downloaded onto the data base cartridges.
Bendix/King makes these data base cartridge updates available to KLN 90B
GPS users.
Provided the KLN 90B GPS navigation system is receiving adequate
usable signals, it has been demonstrated capable of and has been shown to
meet the accuracy specifications of:
VFR/IFR en route oceanic and remote, en route domestic, terminal, and
instrument approach (GPS, Loran-C, VOR, VOR-DME, TACAN, NDB, NDB-
DME, RNAV) operation within the U.S. National Airspace System, North
Atlantic Minimum Navigation Performance Specifications (MNPS) Airspace
and latitudes bounded by 74° North and 60° South using the WGS-84 (or
NAD 83) coordinate reference datum in accordance with the criteria of AC 20-
138, AC 91-49, and AC 120-33. Navigation data is based upon use of only the
global positioning system (GPS) operated by the United States.
REPORT: VB-1710
9-88,
2 of 12,
Aircraft using GPS for oceanic IFR
operations may use the KLN 90B to
replace one of the other approved means
of long-range navigation. A single KLN
90B GPS installation may also be used on
short oceanic routes which require only
one means of long range navigation.
FAA approval of the KLN 90B does not
necessarily constitute approval for use in
foreign airspace.
