Is it correct that the Department of the day introduced DME Homing and letdown charts due to the early F27 having only one ADF and one VAR/VOR receivers. This installation required an alternate at aerodromes where only a NDB was available. With the publishing of DME let down charts, alternates at places like Wynyard(NDB/DME) were only necessary for weather.
