can a VOR give a wrong reading?
Is it possible that a VOR/OBI can give wrong reading?
I was tuned to Ottringham VOR, morse ID confirmed everything as normal. I was overhead kirkbymoorside (I was confident of position I know the area well and had just overflown my brothers house) but the bearing I had set to be correct at kirkbymoorside showed a large deflection indicating I should fly right.
I centered the needle and noted the bearing, then out of interest I flew as the needle said. It was still not centered as I aproached sutton bank so I turned round and came home. I re checked the morse ident several times and re checked the bearings back on the ground. I asked the instructors at the club, no one could suggest what had happened. Any body got any ideas?
