It's amusing that a check airman wants to evaluate pilots by 30 year old standards instead of by the operational environment they will actually be in.  Let's be honest.  You probably struggle to find VOR approaches, DME Arcs, timed approaches, and procedure turns, and lament that you can't find any NDB approach anymore. But you seek them out to anyway perhaps to "teach the young folks a thing or two."  if you are desperately searching for VOR approaches and have to fly to an airport 30 or 40 miles away to do one on a check, that should tell you everything you need to know about where things are going.  Don't waste you time training and evaluating people on something they won't be able to do, likely in a few months.  All my tried and true VOR approaches like the VOR-A into KTEB are gone, and whatever ones you are using will soon be gone too.  The sooner you realize that, the more effective you will be as a check airman.
