The primary means of navigation over the land was through the means of radio navigation routes which is explained by the VHF omni ranging/distance measuring equipment (VOR/DME) beacons. By arranging situation of these beacons at major navigation or crossing points, it was possible to construct the whole airway network which may be used by the flight crew in order to describe the aircraft flight from the take-off to touchdown. Other radio frequency aids involve the distance measuring equipment (DME) and non-distance beacons (NDB).
