It's not implied at all to an informed reader.



OK Steven, please inform us what electronic navigation
systems these lines are referring to...

2. Demonstrates the ability to use an airborne electronic navigation
system.
3. Locates the airplane's position using the navigation system.
4. Intercepts and tracks a given course, radial or bearing, as
appropriate.


GPS? LORAN? ADF?


And........?

Of course VOR. I was agreeing that there are multiple choices of
radio style thing that can satisfy that section of the PTS.

But, if the examiner finds out you don't know how to use a VOR, you're not

Yeah, sure.

I'm willing to bet every pillow, mattress, and piece of furniture in
your house still has the "Do not remove under penalty of law" tag on
it.

Try to pass a PPL written, oral or practical without understanding how to
use a VOR.
