I haven't seen an airplane with NDB or ADF ever, and I've been regularly flying for about 5 years. They are super rare to find on charts, at least in the US. VOR is still common but most people use GPS.

They are still quite common in older tin can airplanes i.e. Cessna 150s and the like, but often with "INOP" written on the instrument with a sharpie.
