one of the young instructors in the shop showed me with pride the track from his last flight, bang on the Melbourne CTA boundary right around from north to south on the east side at 4500'.
And that is exactly what results in quite a number of VCAs.

Many don't know exactly what their GPS is telling them their distance is from

Is it
  • from the DME
  • from the VOR
  • from the aerodrome reference point
  • from the McDonalds joint in the terminal building
  • or what?
