Re: Historical Navigation Question...
Developed areas ( Europe and the USA) were not really that different from today with a wide selection of VOR and NDBs . Off the beaten track - Asia, Africa and South America , VORs were very much less common and the bulk of aids were NDBs - in Russia this still applies. Over water and sparsely sett...
