It's a little confusing that       there's apparently a radio beacon PYD on 415kHz       that the DF guys put NW of Groom at       37 17 04.68N,115 56 14.83W.              That PYD beacon doesn't seem like it's       in an advantageous spot for use as       a navaid, at least not when used       in the manner in which we typically       hear Dreamland telling planes to       approach/depart.              And just to add to the confusion, there's       PIRMID (ZLA) which is just about 5 miles       west of RWY 25 at KLAS.                     Lumpy       --       In Your Ears for 40 Years       http://www.lumpymusic.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
