Tracking towards a DME station
Following a recent failure of ADF and VOR equipment simultaneously on one flight I realised that with the DME still working I could still track towards that - as it happens I was after a turn routing towards a working DME station. Weather was fine so probably not really essential but comforting all the same. It also occurred to me that once the DME distance started increasing (meaning that I had gone abeam the station) then allowing for height above station I could have tracked 90 in either direction to continue tracking towards it - had I not in fact seen the station - on the basis that if distance had increased I would then have turned 180...probably all quite basic but worth remembering since if visability had been poor this would have been very useful in confirming position...
