Name of VOR not shown in PFD

Featured Replies

Hi All,When flying the NGX I noticed that not always the name of the VOR I tuned is on the PFD. It does show the distance, but for the name I see "------". My MCP Combo does show the name (when I press the DME).Nine of of ten times it is not shown when I tune in to an ILS frequency, however, for example at EHEH it is also not shown when I tune to the airport beacon.Does this have to do with settings or anything else?Thanks and regards,Maurice

I have the same "problem". But it isn't a real issue. I beleave that the name is not always shown there in real world. But when you switch to the APP screen it'll show the name.Also I know that the name of pure DMEs are now shown.

I think VORs show on the ND and ILS show on PFD. It has nothing to do with whether or no APP is selected.

I did not mean the APP button on the MCP, but the approach screen on the ND. In the upper right corner should be the identifier of the runway (for example ILSL for runway 26L in Leipzig/Halle)
