In order to advance the Required Navigation Performance(RNP) at the plateau airports and flight performance for fleets serving the region, Air China recently started RNP testing of A330s in Lhasa.
This came on the heels of Air China’s work with B757 jets in Lhasa, Linzhi and Jiuzhai. Air China is the largest user among domestic airlines of RNP. Its ongoing work at the plateau airports has contributed to aviation development out west.
