Dean Cross DCS VOR showing further away than Pluto !!

[fenflame 1]

VOR DCS (Dean Cross) in Northern England is not showing on the map at all and the data in the flight plan is completely wrong. It thinks it is 3402823000000000 miles from Glasgow :) .

Please could you check.

 

Kind Regards, Alan.

You are correct.  Both Navigraph and NavDataPro data have the DCS VOR with no Lat/Lon, which would place it in outer space.

I suspect it has been decommissioned in real life.
