Current Flight Paths
Current Flight Paths Current approach and departure paths are all over water and avoid noise sensitive areas Flight paths are typically based on guidance from ground based navigational aids which result in linear paths flyporter.com 3
Departure Flight Paths Runway 26 Runway 08 flyporter.com 4
Arrival – Runway 08 (most conditions) Visual Approach RNAV C Approach 1750’ 1750’ ASL ASL 1500’ ASL Approaches from East > 1500’ ASL 2000’ 2000’ Approaches from ASL 2000’ South and West > ASL 2000’ 2000’ ASL ASL ASL flyporter.com 5
Arrival – Runway 08 Low Visibility (~2% of arrivals) ILS 08 Approach 1750’ ASL 2000’ ASL 2000’ ASL flyporter.com 6
Arrival – Runway 26 Visual Approach ILS 26 Approach 2500’ - Approaches 3000’ ASL from East > 2000’ ASL 2300’ ASL 1500’ ASL Approaches from Approaches West > 1500’ ASL from South > 2000’ ASL flyporter.com 7
Future Flight Paths
Future Flight Paths CS100 will be approved for RNP, next generation navigational procedures RNP utilizes highly accurate GPS based curved approach and departure paths RNP enables for more direct flight paths on take-offs and landings reducing the kilometers flown on each flight. Benefits include: Reduced fuel consumption Reduced emissions Smaller noise footprint Smaller protected airspace with fewer restrictions on waterfront development than exists today Porter's investment in RNP technology to support CS100 would also have similar benefits on the Q400 operations flyporter.com 9
RNP AR Concept Illustration RNP permits for highly accurate curved flight paths compared to current linear paths (radar vectors / RNAV) being flown RNP flight paths are flown with positive course correction for wind drift and require a smaller protected area flyporter.com 10
Glossary
Glossary ASL – above sea level RNP-AR – required navigation performance - authorization required (advanced flight guidance criteria that enables optimum flight profiles) RNAV C – Global Position System (GPS) provides flight guidance ILS – Instrument Landing System – ground based navigation aid that provides flight guidance Visual Approach – “visually flown” maneuver without instrument based flight guidance Low Visibility – Clouds less than 600 ft above ground and visibility less than 1.5 nautical miles flyporter.com 12
