    Hi Alon,
    Regarding drawing, I can't add more the searching the web.

    Regarding ADF, it's still being used in the commercial aviation.
    One example is Arnem1S dep out of AMS.
    You have a radial intercept of NV NDB to take to IVLUT.
    In Israel you have the LL.

    Fly B742 and you will know why they are still being used

    ADF procedures...

    Hi

    Yeah, I am fully aware there are still ADF procedures around...

    This is an anachronism in itelf - I expect those things to be phased out pretty soon.

    If I remember well, the FAA decided to stop maintaining the NDB ground transmitters - once it breaks down - that's the end of it...

    The FAA also decided to cease maintaining the LORAN C system for the same reason.

    When you've got WAAS GPS and VOR, the other systems are pretty useless...

    I do not intend to fly a 744 anytime soon...I like "seat of the pants" flying the old fashioned way...

    Take care

    Hi Alon,
    I didn't say fly 744, I said 742
    Take the RFP V2 for a ride in the sim, low payload, ARNEM1S
    See if you can maintain restriction of altitude and speed, while
    sticking to the SID
