Vor Adf Rmi

VOR means very high frequency (VHF) omni-directional range. VOR navigation is a type of short-range radio navigation that airplane pilots use to determine their exact position and navigate to their destination.

The VOR is indicating that the aircraft is on the 360° course (north) to the VOR station (i.e. the aircraft is south of the VOR station). If the To/From indicator were showing "From" it would mean the aircraft was on the 360° radial from the VOR station (i.e. the aircraft is north of the VOR).

Most VORs have distance measuring equipment (DME) or tactical air navigation equipment (TACAN) installed within the VOR station. When a VOR is collocated with DME, it's labeled as "VOR-DME." On the other hand, when a VOR is collocated with a TACAN, it's called a VORTAC.

Pilots can positively identify a VOR by either its Morse code identification or the recorded automatic voice identification. This is always followed by “VOR” after the range’s name.
