I have added the remarks for SIDs and STARs. Also deselected D2 and D3. Starship has some RNP monitoring but is not capable of SIDs and STARs because they cannot be loaded from the on board system. Which is a regulatory necessity. Simbrief now does respect that selection and will not plan RNAV1 SIDs and STARs.
However it can follow LNAV RNAV approaches and they are retrievable via the CDU hence PNB S1.
I don’t know if the real plane can do that too and if it’s certified. @Black-Square Nick has to answer that one.Another thing that is debatable is PNB A1. I don’t know if the plane has the authorisation to fly over remote ar
Note: all of the above is without the buggy GNS430 for which Nick is not responsible. But considering the GNSS retrofit.
If you want to fly 1980 style I would recommend removing the PNB B2, C2 and S1. !

@DrZGard thanks for sharing. Is the starship really rnp capable? Are you sure the ICAO Equipment and PBN capabilities are correct? I think it would need a RAIM system for this?

Erm, its depends on your criteria for RNP. if by RNAV 0.3 LNAV/VNAV and LPV with the working title GTN 430 (TSO-C146a) with WAAS (and RAIM/FDE) then yes? Note that this unit is not certified for RF legs and I believe all RNP's in North America require specific operator training and RF leg capability. The basic AMS-850 FMS (TSO-C129) on the Starship without the 430 is RNP 1 for approaches and supports LNAV only. So the answer is yes, it is RNP capable to a degree depending on avionics choice.
TLDR: Without the 430 fly RNAV with LNAV mins following the CDA approach (or dive and drive if your suicidal). LPV and LNAV/VNAV is available if you're using the GTN 430. Avoid RNP approaches in North America or any approaches that note authorization required. A rule of thumb is that only LPV is arguably higher precision than ILS Cat 1, otherwise ILS Cat 1(+) is the better approach. And before you ask, no, the starship cannot fly ILS Cat 2/3.
