What Does VOR Stand For?
VOR stands for Vhf Omnidirectional Range
VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) is a type of radio navigation system used by aircraft to determine their position and stay on course. It operates in the very high frequency (VHF) band and provides pilots with azimuth information, enabling them to navigate with precision. VOR stations emit radio signals in all directions, allowing users to calculate their bearings relative to the station. This system is a crucial component of the air traffic management infrastructure, enhancing the safety and efficiency of air travel.
