Did you know...(NAVAIDs)

Some of them are: NDB, VOR, VOR/DME, DME, ILS and MLS.

Did you know...



Much of the things that I found and I want to share with all of you are very long to write (or aren't long enough to write a post) so I procrastinate them.
My way to avoid procrastinating this kind of things is this section, where I'm going to explain things with a sentence or two and I would place here (as I ussualy do) from where I take the info.
