Performance - Based Navigation (PBN) : Fixed Radius Paths

Path terminators are assigned to all RNAV SID, STAR and approach procedure segments in an
airborne navigation database
This allows translating into computer language (FMS) the procedures designed for clock &
compass manual flight
Charted procedures are translated into a sequence of ARINC 424 legs in the database
There are 23 different path terminators defined in ARINC 424. Those which can be expected in
RNAV or RNP charts are depicted on Figure 19.13.
