Narrative:

We were cleared via the cheongja (1A) arrival, but ground base VOR (kip) and (sel) in the sel area was not keeping us on course. We required much radar vectoring to keep us south of the dmz. Our omega navigation, because of the northern latitudes, was not all that dependable either. The speed restrs in the sel TCA sneaked up on me a little bit (250 KTS above 10000 ft and 210 KTS below 10000 ft), but that was probably due to the navigation problems we were having. Approach control was a little miffed with us, but with inaccurate vors and omegas and korean controllers that are difficult to understand anyway, we're lucky to have done as well as we did.

Title: B727 FLC HAS HEADING DEV ON DSCNT THEN SPD DEV WHEN UNDER 10000 FT.

Narrative: WE WERE CLRED VIA THE CHEONGJA (1A) ARR, BUT GND BASE VOR (KIP) AND (SEL) IN THE SEL AREA WAS NOT KEEPING US ON COURSE. WE REQUIRED MUCH RADAR VECTORING TO KEEP US S OF THE DMZ. OUR OMEGA NAV, BECAUSE OF THE NORTHERN LATITUDES, WAS NOT ALL THAT DEPENDABLE EITHER. THE SPD RESTRS IN THE SEL TCA SNEAKED UP ON ME A LITTLE BIT (250 KTS ABOVE 10000 FT AND 210 KTS BELOW 10000 FT), BUT THAT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO THE NAV PROBS WE WERE HAVING. APCH CTL WAS A LITTLE MIFFED WITH US, BUT WITH INACCURATE VORS AND OMEGAS AND KOREAN CTLRS THAT ARE DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND ANYWAY, WE'RE LUCKY TO HAVE DONE AS WELL AS WE DID.
