Southwest’s RNP investment: Is $175 million
At least 115 737 Classics’ cockpits, ensuring its more than 320 737-700s are equipped to be Required Navigation Performance-capable, training its pilots and working with US FAA to develop RNP procedures for the more than 65 airports into which it operates. But will the US government and other airlines similarly move forward, or will SWA within the next 2-3 years have aircraft and pilots capable of operating at a level of efficiency that FAA and much of the rest of the US industry is unable to reach for the foreseeable future?
