help needed with nav exam
hi everyone
im currently studying for the nav exam can you tell me if this is the correct way to fill these parts of the flight log?
first calculate MSA
if highest ground is terrain round up to next hundred add 1300?
or if its a strucure round up to nxt hundred add 1000?
hdg= true track of 085 plus var ie 5w = 090 west is best prompt!
if calculating hdg T do i take allowance for the W/V and Magnetic var or just the wind?
all my calculations seem to be off by a few degrees!!
also when working out the distance of a line ive drawn from airfield to airfield do i need to start from the edge of the circle or in the middle as even this measurement can be out by half a mile!!
im pretty sure in the real exam this would be considered a fail am i right?
could it be that the book im doing the exams from is quite old now
(jeremy pratt questions and answers 2003 edition?
the chart i use is a a 1.500000 current vfr
