German Corner

OK I give up.
If given the auspicious routing to German Corner.....How do you navigate to it from where you are?

Thnx for the expeditious reply.
How might this be keyed into the FMGC as an overfly point?
Can you input VOR radial DME fixes?
Sorry for the naivety.

I'm impressed with the seeming simplicity of it all. Really then, if you had a mind to it, and bags of pre-flight time, you could ostensibly 'shave off' miles from your flight-plan route!

Thanks chaps.

ABKUT N48 59.0 E008 15.0

If you key the co-ordinates into Google Earth you will see at seven 'o' clock what looks like half a VOR.

Maybe they have decided to give German Corner an update!
