My only advice is: don\'t use those silly navigation thingys you are supposed to pin to the map as they are top-boll*cks! My co-pilot / navigator inadvertently pinned it to the WRONG VOR (!) and it was only later that we realised our error (of course we failed the navex!) - but it dawned on me that there is not the equivalent of identing the VOR with morse to stop you making such a gross error! OK, I admit it was a stupid mistake...!
er...so the \'silly nav thing\' which has seen me quite happily through the last 7 years BCPL, CPL, and IR as well as being an ivaluable aid as an instructor..is \'top-boll...\'.
Er...yet by your own admission your nav pinned it to the WRONG VOR
...with no gross error check available.....other than the NAME of the VOR being written on the MAP and on the WAYPOINT sheet...er....yes...ahem.
ident? black & white lettering on paper in front of you not enough eh?! Roll on electronic paper\'s availability so you could put your finger on it and hear the ident so you can check it against the ident written on ...oh yeah...the paper you just pressed...
IMO I think VORTrack is a superb bit of kit and I have used it for years. I heartily recommend it.
