Either I'm dumb or I need to study more
Thanks for the comment. I’m guessing you aren’t dumb. Not everyone learns the same way, and unfortunately, a single video won’t be able to meet everyone’s learning preferences. At least a couple of viewers noted that it took a couple of viewings of the video before VOR navigation started making sense. Another option might be to check out the Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge. The PHAK-can be downloaded free from the FAA. VOR navigation is explained starting on page 16-22.
I hope this helps. I wish you the best of luck. Thanks, again for the comment!
🤣
You'll get it man...
Yes you will!!
I have spent countless days and hours to learn this. I still struggle with this. You’re not alone
I have struggled with VOR, yet somehow passed quizzes I have taken. This video has now allowed me to understand VOR. Clear and concise information delivered in a simple way. We need more videos like this!
I am so glad this was helpful! Thank you for the compliment. I hope my other videos are helpful, too!
Bro sounds like he's about to challenge me to battle of wits
Thanks for commenting, but I’m not quite sure what you mean?
Best VOR explanation I have ever seen ! Thanks.
Thanks for the comment!! I’m glad it was useful!
Agreed!
Thank you!
Agreed!
Thank you!❤
Dude you NAILED IT... wish my CFI could have explained it like you .. some 30 years ago!!
Thank you for the comment!! I truly appreciate it!!
I have gone through the King's Flight School and this was one of the things that I couldn't grasp. I've spent the last week watching every VOR video I could find on RUclips. All of them seemed to be skipping the basics and assuming you knew it. They seemed to start on step 4 and then skip to step 7 and it just didn't make sense. There were holes in all of their explanations. So none of the explanations made sense. I've probably watched 15-20 different videos and still didn't get it.
However, you NAILED this explanation. Your taking it baby-step by baby-step really helped me finally grasp it. I'm going to watch your video several more times to fully grasp it but all the steps are there. You explained one tiny concept at a time, then added the next. My favorite part of the video was when you explained what quadrant the plane would be in and then added the next step of spinning it to meet the direction it was supposed to be pointed. Everyone else I've studied teaches that in one step. You broke it down to two steps. Brilliant! Thank you for not only knowing your material but understanding where the student is and bring the lesson down to our level. Feel free to reach out and I'd be more than happy to write you a review anywhere you'd like.
Excellent!! I am so glad you found this helpful. I hope you find the other videos as helpful. Thank you for the review!! Have a great day!!
I agree. Sporty's explanation was not good, but this made it understandable. Fortunately, I found it after quickly discarding 3 or 4 others.
Awesome! Thank you! I’m very glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for this video! I too have struggled A LOT with VOR navigation. This was incredibly helpful.

This is the light moment for me. The part that says you got to turn in the direction of the radial was very important. A lot of videos don't explain this.
Excellent! I’m so glad this was helpful!! Thanks for the comment!

Finally a simplified explanation to someone actually learning this material! I feel like everyone else explains it as if we already understand it.
I am very glad this was helpful! Most of my time in creating these videos is trying to find concise, yet simplified ways to describe the topics. I’m glad it worked in this case! Thank you for sharing your comment!
my experience as well haha
Working on IFR rating. This really helped with a new, simple way to visualize things.
Excellent! I’m glad it was helpful!
I finally get it! Your teaching style is remarkably like the Cuesta Professor, the Junior High School math teacher, whose videos make college algebra understandable. Bravo.
I’m so glad I could help! More videos are on the way!
This literally brought everything together, I take my written tomorrow. Wish me luck!
Best of luck! Let us know how it goes!!

Watched every other video regarding VOR on RUclips and just couldn’t relate them to the written questions. This one finally helped me understand thank you. Like/sub well earned. Vid saved for future reference 👍
Excellent! I’m glad it was helpful! Thank you for the comment!
Incredible explanation!!👏thank you sir keep making more such videos😌
Thank you! I’m glad the video was helpful! More are on the way!
I love this! I’m at the very beginning of my flight training (at 65 yikes!). I’ll need to watch it a few more times to really “get it”. Thanks for your generosity!
Thank you! I hope you find my other videos helpful, too! Nothing wrong with 65. I did a BFR and IPC for an 80ish pilot earlier this year. He’s a great flier and brings a wealth of wisdom to the cockpit. Best of luck with your training!!
Good luck! I started my PPL at 58y.o., I am just about to take my test 2 years later. I've had an amazing time doing the training and feel so blessed.
Good luck to you, too!! Age is just a number! I have done flight reviews and IPCs with folks in their 80s. Glad you’ve enjoyed the journey so far!
This was easier to understand than other videos. Thank you.
I'm very glad it was helpful! Thank you for the comment!
Great explanation
Thank you very much! I’m glad you found it useful!
I'm studying for my military license, and I have some difficulties in navigation. Thank your video now is all clear in my mind! Once you find the key, all this stuff is easier. Thank you so much! New subscriber.
Thank you for the comment and subscription!! I am so glad the video was helpful. More are on the way!

This actually helped me a lot! Vors are one of the few things holding me up on my written. Thank you!!
Glad this was helpful. Best of luck on your written!
Watched a ton of videos on this topic and still struggled interpreting VOR related questions. Your explanation along with the visuals really helped me understand were to place the aircraft in relation to the VOR indication. By far the best explanation in the topic!
Excellent! I’m glad this was helpful! Thank you for the comment!
Amazing explanation 👏🏼
Thank you!
Got it. Thanks!

You are very welcome! Thank you for the comment!
Awesome straight forward and clear explanation! Great job! I was a CFI for a lot of years (then just got too busy doing other stuff to keep renewing) and this was one of the best videos I’ve seen explaining VOR use. Where were you in 1998 when I was a kid working on my instrument rating??? Lol 👍
Thank you so much for the comment and compliments.
In 1998 I was also working on my instrument rating… complaining about NDB approaches-grin.
Best of luck, and thanks again!!
Well done
Thank you!
thank you
You are very welcome. I’m glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment!
Thank you it’s helpful
You are very welcome! Thank you for the comment!!
Fantastic video, thank you. Like many, I’ve watched countless videos in an attempt to grasp the principles of the dreaded VOR, and this video I believe, has helped immensely…particularly the end portion, where you spun the diagram to align with the VOR info….that nailed it for me. Thank you again.
Perfect! I am so glad the video was helpful! Thank you for the comment!
Yeah, turning the diagram helped me too.
Awesome! I’m so glad it helped!
great video
Thank you! And, thanks for the comment!
Thanks
Thank you!
I hold great admiration for you as a naturally gifted instructor. Your unique approach to explaining the material is truly commendable. Your teaching style is exceptional, and you have a remarkable ability to keep students fully engaged with the subject matter. I hope to be fortunate enough to find a CFI with your qualities to help me complete my commercial single engine training. Instructors like you are a rare find. Well done, Scott!
Wow! Thank you so much for the compliment. I truly appreciate it. If you are ever in the Southeastern Minnesota area. Look me up!
