Canada To Decommission Hundreds of VORs, NDBs
Following a study, Nav Canada plans to decommission hundreds of VOR and NDB navigation aids that it said are no longer required.

Nav Canada, the country’s provider of civil air navigation services, has finished a study of navigation aids and concluded that “given the comprehensive radar surveillance coverage, and the propensity of area navigation (Rnav) with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) equipped aircraft, many VOR and NDB navigation aids (navaids) are no longer required and should be decommissioned.”
