VHF omnidirectional range
A very high frequency omnidirectional range station is a type of short-range VHF radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft with a VOR receiver to determine the azimuth, referenced to magnetic north, between the aircraft to/from fixed VOR ground radio beacons.- Type: Building
- Description: Aviation navigation system
- Also known as: “Drehfunkfeuer Hehlingen (HLZ)” and “VOR”
