I thought it was "Visual Omni Range", meaning multi-directional and you got to see the display as opposed to the aural radio ranges. Ah-ha...somebody else as old as I am. :-) That's how I first heard it way back in the early fifties. By the late fifties, we had VORs in our Navy aircraft, but the emphasis on my final instrument check-ride was still on the "aural" A-N Range for both enroute navigation and approaches. How pleasant to get to the first fleet squadron to find that it was all VOR/ADF/GCA flying. Bob Moore
