NDB lament.
I trained on steam gauges (there was nothing else then) and have just recently gotten a little more used to GPS. The 12.000hr (I kid you not) rental 152 I fly out of Lydd is all old school - not a GPS in sight. It barely has a VOR.
I don't mind this at all, but one of the things I always used regularly on aimless flights was the ADF, just as a little pointer and guide to where you were so you don't have to be buried in the chart all the time. I like ADF - it's simple and useful. But these days, they're on the chart, you tune them, but rarely do they work.
Is there some kind of list of when and which NDB's they plan to shut down in the near future? And how long before they'll all be gone?
