Hi guys!

I'm new to the forum, though I read you often! This time I have a question that I'd like to ask, even though I think I'm pretty sure of the answer :)

I've tried to search on these forums if the Lorenz system is implemented, and could not find anything about it. I did investigate a little bit in FMB but could not see any Lorenz-related object on the FMB so I believe it is not implemented, but I thought I could give a try and ask for it!

TIA! Cheers!

Yep, there is an object named "Radio NDB Beacon" on the FMB, but as the name implies that is only for NDB :)

Lorenz system a different antennae set; as you said, three antennae parallel to the runway, but they where built together in the same structure: don't expect three different structures to place manually on the airport, but just one single object which holds the three-antenna system.

I hope some day it will be implemented; right now I had in mind a fictional mission which would involve Lorenz for blind landing, but it could evolve as a navigational aid for bombings like the X-Gerät back in the day!

Ok, ok.. I'll stop dreaming ;)

Any idear if they work?
