Oceanic Air Route Navigation with Envelope Match Loran-C.

A Loran-C envelope matching receiver (Edo Model 600T) was evaluated as a potential replacement for Loran-A. The unit was installed on a Pan American 707 aircraft and data were collected primarily on North Atlantic routes. Results of this program indicate that where Loran-C coverage exists in adequat...
