  • This 60 second video shows you the "away from the needle, away from the flag" rule to get you oriented to VORs quickly and easily! Figures are from the FAA's Instrument Pilot Knowledge Test figure book, figures 97 and 98.
    Check out my other videos especially the ones explaining how various instruments work and the section about VORs! Visit my website at www.theaviationvault.com to learn much more about aircraft dispatchers, airlines, and dispatch history!

    Always remember that Laura, when you get right down to it, is just a pilot and a dispatcher. She is explaining facts from the source materials but may be incorrect or out of date. You should always follow your primary guidance (aircraft manuals, government regulations, etc.) before listening to anything from this RUclips channel. These videos are intended for educational purposes only.

      The needle is the yellow line in the middle of the instrument (I do try to point it out right at the beginning of the video).

  • @aviatortrucker6285
    @aviatortrucker6285 11 месяцев назад +2

    Very simple. First look at your heading and look at the examples of which aircraft is facing the same heading. Next look at the To/From. Is it pointing up or down? That will tell you where you are in relation to the station. Look at the airplane in the center of the instrument. Remember this rule with a from indication, if the VOR and the deflection is on the same side, you’re not there yet. So, in the first example aircraft 12 is facing roughly 320. The arrow of the two from indicator is pointing up, which says that the VOR is ahead of you. Now look at the relation of aircraft 12 and the course line, and you can see the angle which is representative of looking at the center of the instrument, and how the CDI angle is in relation to it.

    • @LauraLaster747
      @LauraLaster747  11 месяцев назад

      Absolutely right to start with the heading. That often eliminates all other answer choices. Thank you for the extra feedback and instruction here!
