Luton advised CAA that:
- Some Boeing aircraft flying the RNAV SIDs had issues with the database coding in the way in which their
aircraft Flight Management Systems are interpreting how to fly the procedures.
- This is resulting on occasions some Boeing aircraft flying further to the west and south on the turn towards
Brookmans Park.
- Luton had therefore suspended the use of the SID by Boeing aircraft in December 2015.
- The causes of the issues continue to be investigated by the operators affected.
- The SIDs would continue to be available to operators of Airbus aircraft and other non-Boeing aircraft
types.

Luton Airport is collating feedback on the changes to the replicated departure flight paths introduced in August
2015. Comments on the replicated departure procedure should be sent to Luton airport via their website.
The Luton Airport Noise page was designed to help give a better understanding of the various
aspects of aircraft noise, not just the RNAV route. LLA postponed an RNAV update anticipated for July 2016, however
on the LLA RNAV web page, LLA published details of a community engagement event held on 6 October, which provided
an update on the RNAV SID.
