avia., Canada An aircraft radio navigation system that senses and indicates the direction to a LF/MF non-directional beacon NDB ground transmitter. Direction is indicated to the pilot as a magnetic bearing or as a relative bearing to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft depending on the type of indicator installed in the aircraft.
