LORAN-C is not typically approved for IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) flight as a primary navigation source. While it was used in the past for navigation, it has largely been replaced by more accurate and reliable systems like GPS. The FAA does not endorse LORAN-C for IFR operations due to its limitations and the fact that it is no longer actively maintained. Pilots should rely on current approved navigation systems for IFR flight.

What is decometer?
Decometer was the father of Loran, used by english troops during WW2. It is a navigation instrument based on the same principle of the Loran-C.

What is LORAN-C?
LORAN-C (Long Range Navigation-C) is a radio navigation system that uses low frequency radio signals transmitted from fixed land-based stations to determine the position of a receiver. It operates by measuring the time delay between signals received from multiple transmitters, allowing for accurate positioning over distances of up to 1,500 nautical miles. Primarily used for maritime and aviation navigation, LORAN-C was widely adopted before the advent of GPS technology but has since been largely phased out in favor of satellite-based systems.

When was the loran developed?
Loran, which stands for Long Range Navigation, was developed during World War II, with its first operational use occurring in 1943. This long-range radio navigation system was designed to assist ships and aircraft in determining their position over long distances. It evolved over the years, with various improvements and versions introduced, including Loran-C in the 1950s.

How the use of sky waves affects the measured time difference in Loran C?
The use of sky waves in Loran C can introduce errors in the measured time difference due to signal distortion, multipath interference, and signal attenuation. These factors can cause the signal to arrive at the receiver with a delay or in an altered state, leading to inaccuracies in determining the time difference between the signals from different transmitters. These errors can be minimized through signal processing techniques and calibration procedures.
