southeast (refer to figure 28, illustration 5) the VOR receiver has the indications shown. what radial is the aircraft crossing? 030° (refer to figure 23) on what course should the VOR receiver (OBS) be set to navigate direct from Hampton Varnville Airport (area 1) to Savannah VOR-TAC (area 3) 195°
101° (refer to figure 20, area 3; and figure 28) the VOR is tuned to Elizabeth City VOR/DME, and the aircraft is positioned over Shawboro, a small town 3 NM west of Currituck Country Regional (ONX). which VOR indication is correct? 5
The VOR is tuned to the Maverick VOR/DME. The omnibearing selector (OBS) is set on 253°, with a TO indication, and a right course deviation indicator (CDI) deflection. What is the aircraft's position from the VORTAC? A. East-northeast.
0° FROM or 180° TO, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT. When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the TO/FROM indicator should read
What procedure should you follow to determine the course to a VOR from a specific location on a sectional chart? Plot the course and note where it intersects the VOR compass rose.
What is the approximate position of the aircraft if the VOR receivers indicate the 320° radial of Savannah VORTAC (area 3) and the 191° radial of Allendale VOR (area 1)? 196°.
The accuracy of the VOR should be ±4° for ground checks or ±6° for airborne checks.
Where can locations for VOR test facilities be found? Airport/Facilities Directory.
1. When the course deviation indicator (CDI) needle is centered during an omnireceiver check using a VOR test signal (VOT), the omnibearing selector (OBS) and the To/From indicator should read: a. 0 degrees TO or 180 degrees FROM, regardless of the pilot's position from the VOT.
As the turn nears completion, the bank angle is reduced with coordinated aileron and rudder pressures. To compensate for the crosswind, the pilot must angle into the wind, toward the outside of the rectangular course, which requires the turn to be less than 90°.
On what course should the VOR receiver (OBS) be set to navigate direct from Hampton Varnville Airport (area 1) to Savannah VORTAC (area 3)? 195°. (Refer to Figure 21.)

VOR Checkpoint: Many airports have VOR checkpoint signs that are located near a taxiway, ramp or runup area. These signs indicate the exact point on the airport where there is sufficient signal strength from a VOR to check the aircraft's VOR receiver against the radial designated on the sign.
In which publication can the VOR receiver ground checkpoint(s) for a particular airport be found? Airport/Facility Directory.
NOTAM (D) information is disseminated for all navigational facilities that are part of the National Airspace System (NAS), all public use airports, seaplane bases, and heliports listed in the Airport/Facility Directory (A/FD).
Pilots should state their position on the airport when calling the tower for takeoff from a runway intersection. Cleveland Tower, Apache Three Seven Two Two Papa, at the intersection of taxiway Oscar and runway two three right, ready for departure.
Magnetic course (MC), is the True Course (TC) adjusted for magnetic variation. Magnetic course is the course that would take you directly from origin to destination if there was no wind along the route of flight.
Unless you plan a stopover of more than 1 hr. elsewhere en route. Block 12: Fuel on Board. Fuel on Board is the amount of usable fuel in the airplane (listed in hours and minutes of flying time) at the time of departure. A VFR flight plan does not close or cancel itself - you have to actively close your flight plan.
Compass Heading (CH) is Magnetic Heading (MH), corrected for compass deviation. Deviation is the error produced on the compass simply because it is installed in an aircraft - all the metal, electric motors, and other instruments in each airplane affect the compass causing compass deviation.
11.4 VFR Flight Plan Form. Though they are not required for flight, it is very easy and prudent to file a VFR flight plan for any cross-country type of flight (i.e., when you plan to fly from one airport to another). The VFR flight plan form has 17 inputs.
Any Control towers (and ground control) do not automatically close VFR flight plans when you land, as they do not know if a particular VFR aircraft is on a flight plan (remember, a VFR flight plan is not required for flight).
