    Abandoned VOR in Ridge N.Y.

    Sick as hell and running a fever, I am trecking thru the woods in Ridge.
    Here are some pictures from today.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    I don't ever remember a VOR in Ridge that close to Calverton (not in the last 21 years I've been flying anyway). Maybe it was a test article that was being used by RCA?
    Seems to be over on what was their property?
