A. INTRODUCTION
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^
In Australia, there are many navaid installations where an NDB is 
co-located with a DME, without a coupled VOR.  FS5 does not directly
support the channel tuning of such DME facilities.  In order to 
accommodate these DMEs in the scenery, non-real world VOR frequencies 
are assigned.  These are shown with the label "dme only" in the 
directories below, and in the Nav/Com (Navigation Radio) menu.  When 
tuned to an NDB which has a collocated DME, the special DME frequency 
is also noted in the Nav/Com (ADF) menu.

There are several VORs without DME.  These are labelled as "vor only".
All VORs coupled with DME are labelled "vor+dme".

When approaching an airport supported only by a DME and NDB, it is 
more realistic to fly with the ADF active, and with NAV2 tuned to the 
special DME frequency.  This gives the DME2 distance readout while 
removing the NAV2 OBI from use.  In fact, it wouldn't be unrealistic
to always configure your nav instruments this way when flying in
Australia.

Several Australian airports offer both Australian and International 
DME capability.  (Australian DME is an uniquely Australian system and 
more accurate than the International DME system.)  In these cases, 
only one DME is rendered in the scenery.  One of the two real world 
DMEs is usually coupled with a VOR.  When any real world DME is 
coupled with a VOR, the *simulated* DME is always located at the VOR
position. 

Ranges for NDBs are set as specified in ERSA (Enroute Supplement
Australia) for overland and daytime, and are given in the directories 
below.  Ranges for VORs and DMEs are set at 120 nm.  FS5 can read DME 
ranges up to 98.9 nm.  If the DME indicates a range from 99.0 to 99.9 
(the max readout), the station is more distant than shown, but the 
localizer is available.  So please be advised of this when navigating.
If the DME shows "....", the station is totally out of range or the 
station is "vor only".

Airports which have towers usually have ATIS information. In the real
world, some ATIS are available only on NDB or VOR frequencies.
Non-real world frequencies are used in the scenery to accommodate
these NDB/VOR type ATISs and a few of the other COMs.  These are marked
with "*" in the Airport Directory.

All ILS distance readouts are measured from the touchdown point.
You need to remember this when using real world instrument approach 
"plates".  All ILS ranges have been set at 60 nm, minimum.

In the directories below, latitude is south and longitude is east.  
In the Airport Directory, the cited position is to the closest
minute of the "Aerodrome Reference Point" published in CAA documents.
In Australia, airport elevations are expressed in feet and runway
lengths are expressed in meters.
