Another type of waypoint which will have a name in your Apollo NMS
database, but may or may not appear on your approach procedure chart
is an IAF waypoint defined as a radial and distance from a VOR. An
example would be the VOR DME RWY 4 approach to North Bend,
Oregon. The IAF at the OTH 164 radial at 14 nm is contained in the
Apollo NMS database as D164N (“D” for DME, 164 for 164 radial,
and “N,” the 14th letter of the alphabet, for 14 nm.). It is also depicted
on Jeppesen approach procedure charts with this name; however, this
name is not found on NOS charts.
