Nothing will beat some practical nav exercises to understand what the object is.

Well guys. After a lot of time spent looking at the whizz wheel i now feel comfortable calculating TAS, GS, W/V, HDG(T), HDG(M), DIST, TIME and a little bit of MSA and PL/ALT.
There is a big difference between knowing how to calculate that lot, & knowing the reasons why & how to apply it.
I would wait till you have been out of the circuit once or twice.
You may find that out of sight of the runway you will suddenly feel lost!
