Geography As so often, this beacon sits in the middle of rural fields, mostly crops, in the mid-East part of the country just outside Apeldoorn. However it is the only beacon where the crops have gotten into the actual beacon lot: somebody actively maintains a vegetable and flower garden in the rectangular area where usually only grass and gravel persist. You can drive straight up to the beacon on a normal road, it is directly next to it.
Procedures Teuge NDB is mainly used as an approach aid for the nearby Teuge airfield (EHTE); it is quite well aligned with the main runway.

Photo 4 Actually a nice environment to lazily radiate some waves. [...]
Photo 5 And this is what it works for: Teuge Airfield, a few km North-East. [...]
