Who cares about RNP, yeah it’s great to have, but like one of the other posts indicated it’s unlikely you’ll actually be “cleared” for any RNP to a major airport. I’m not too sure why YX deems it necessary to spend money on this, as you’ll only really use it flying out west, especially the PNW, which they’re not flying.
Not at a regional now, but every time it's nice in SFO we get the rnp visual there.
