Italian air navigation service provider ENAV and Leonardo recently tested and validated the performance-based navigation (PBN) procedure for the Foggia–Tremiti S. Domino Island route in the Apulia region in Southern Italy. This was carried out with an AW169 helicopter operated by Alidaunia, a company providing transport services to and from the Tremiti Islands, as well as emergency medical service missions that support the relevant local community.
