Don't know if that's what they got, but seems every one normally gets that departure when I'm there.
Thanks. Do they usually give you a direct or 'turn right on course' to intercept a radial after the runway heading? At the old airport you had several NDB's and they were all named, you guessed it, Tehran.

It looks like the ADS-B was certainly sending out positions for a while, it probably defaults to IRS or whatever it's called on a B-738 if GPS is not available. Cue DaveReidUK, he would possibly know.
