![]() The symbol indicates where the ASR is located, of course radar services are available at other airports within range. Typically 30 miles or more. All well and good, but the pilot needs to know whether services are available at the airport of intended landing. To scour the thirty miles of nearby airrports for an (R) makes more work for the pilot (though less work for the cartographer. Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address) |

![]() Because that's the airport he intends to land at. He can't land if there's no radar at the airport of intended landing? He can't get radar services if there are no radar services at the airport of intended landing. So he needs to know if there are radar services at that airport. He doesn't need to know if the radar providing those services is physically located there (which is what the (R) would tell you) Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address) |

No. Which is why the (R) is not as useful as it could be. Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address) |
