Airlines firm Lion Air will improve its safety by using Required Navigation Performance (RNP) instrument procedures which will be used for its Boeings 737-900ER.
Lion Production Director Capt. R Tata told journalists that the RNP instrument was part of a global navigation system which can add more safety when the planes landed or took off at certain airports already equipped with RNP.
Lion Air plans to apply the new procedures to its flights to and from Ambon, Manado, and Makassar.
The procedures will also minimize fuel consumption and related incidents. (Naf)
