Show r 4C Lakeside Review North, Wednesday, September 26, 1984 Odd Towers Create Air Highways CHERYL ARCHIBALD Stall Review The little round buildings could be small temples with fat on their steeples mid-cent- er roofs. More conspicuous in the desert, the strange white structures also exist in cities. One is visible from North Salt Lake, another is situated in Clinton. The odd looking buildings prompt wild guesses about their use. With a shrug, one speculator assumed they detect air pollution. Another guessed they are . 'r t v.; - receivers. girl was sure the buildings are snack bars. Actually, for pilots, they just might be sacred temples during bad weather because the white shelters are actually VORTAC (Very High Frequency Omnirange) and (Tactical Air Navigamicro-wav- e A ,, 43 v 4 Pi f C: k AH ' . u' , ' ,z' i AH teen-ag- i&Mp i e facilities that house STRANGE navigational equipment to di- mysterious STRUCTURE tion) M K rect aircraft from one point to another. To accurately describe how the equipment navigates would take pages and would cure most insomniacs, but basicly the VOR equipment directs commercial planes by transmitting two types of high frequency continuous signals that give 360 courses radiated from 0 degrees. A pilot can tune his radio to a VORTACs frequency. Using information received from the u SUZANNE KIMBALL in it actually houses navigational equipment to direct aircraft during flight. and its direction in degrees in a and on to Delta, Milford and Clinton to most who live around it. It signals, his receiving device will tell him if he is going toward clockwise direction from magnetic north. When VOR and TACAN are combined in a facility it is called a VORTAC fa- (To) or away (From") the VORTAC, His indicator will show what degree of magnetic compass he is, and will tell him to fly left or right to adjust his flight path to the course he should be on. Developed for military aircraft the, T AC AN or T AC system gives the plane's distance from a VORTAC in nautical miles' cility. There are more than 900 VORs across the nation. Flying from Ogden to Cedar City, a pilot would navigate from the Ogden VORTAC in Clinton to the one in Salt Lake County and follow the course to Fairfield then to Cedar City. When airplanes flew at slower speed, pilots took bearings on stations then found their positions on charts and measured distances to destinations. But with faster jet aircraft, there is no time to take bearings and compute on charts. So, the little white buildings provide electronic information creating safe highways" for air travelers.
