Rhodes - LGRP
Just wondering, why is the PAR VORDME (108.6) named PARADISI on the approach charts, but called RODOS on the STARs?

I think it’s a mistake. It’s not like that on my charts. PAR is PAR on all the SIDS/STARs and approaches. Would need to to check on the Greek AIP. |

I thought the Greeks never make mistakes. At least that's what they say ;)

The morse is correct. Wasn’t there a thread a few weeks ago by MoTML asking about why it was still required to learn morse in these modern times? It is because on some aircraft (light aircraft, training aircraft, non glass cockpit), the only way to identify an aid is by the morse code ident. Before Cadetships and MPL, you required to really learn how to fly. The Old Times were Good times. |

You don't need to learn Morse code. You do need to follow the morse code as it beeps away though.

As soon as I looked at that Rhodes chart, I found myself wondering why the sun was up in the sky, and checking my watch to make sure it was not 02.00 hrs.

If you email Jepp, they'll fix it.

greek AIP shows RODOS as name of both RDS and PAR on all the plates. my set of lido charts doesn't indicate a name for either of them, only identifier.
|
That's why I always say the three letter ident in during RT.

Neither Jeppesen nor Lido are error-free, even AIPs contain dubious stuff. |

That's rather silly, especially as there appears to be an NDB in the vicinity with the same name. Somebody screwed up bigly!

Not if you use the correct phraseology.

How so? What does R/T have to do with it?

What does RT have to do with 2 navaids in with the same name, as in this example?
