B) 070 M
C) 060 M
D) 050 M
Answer is B, kindly explain
Okay, I'll use the same method as in my previous post, again reliving my novice days in the Link trainer.
Once again, we are in the unusual situation of still-air.
Current QDM = 100 (QDR 280).
Desired QDM = 120 (QDR 300).
So we need to turn to port (left), and intercept the desired bearing from right to left.
50-degree intercept HDG = 120 - 50 = 070
So answer (B) is indeed correct.
