December 2021 VOR Quiz

This navaid is not in the United States.

It's been decommisioned and replaced with another VOR at a new airport for the city.

That city, a beach destination, is located at the south end of a small cone-shaped country.

The pictured VOR, 3.3 miles north of the old airport, was named after a nearby settlement, the spelling of which is one letter different than the city's. That had to have caused confusion!

The convenient, but space-constrained former city-center airport was closed, and a VOR was commissioned at the new airport, which is located well to the north of the city. That navaid is named for the city, but has a different identifier than the airport.

There's another VOR about two miles to the southeast of this one, at another airport, in the adjacent country.

Challenging airspace!
