VOR Questions
Hey guys I am trying to make the connection between VOR's and Radials, by doing some practice questions. Maybe some of you can give me some insight.
1. VOR indicator in an aircraft is centered when 200 is selected in OBS. TO/FROM flag indicates TO. In order to intercept a radial 100 inbound at 90 degrees, the aircraft must turned to a heading of:
a. 010
b. 190
c. 020
d. 110
My answer: Radial inbound of 100 means you have to be on a heading of 280 correct. TO means the aircraft is flying towards the VOR. By drawing a diagram I got 190 (b) as the answer....
2. Heading of 140 and the VOR indicator needle is centered with a TO indication when 120 degrees is selected on the OBS. What heading should be steer to in zero wind conditions to intercept the 240 degree radial outbound from the VOR station at an angle of 45 degrees
a. 015
b. 195
c. 285
d. 105
3. When centering the needle on the VOR, the OBS indicates 080 degrees and the TO/FROM flag indicates TO. In order to intercept the 220 radial outbound from the station at an angle of 30 degrees, you have to turn to a heading of:
a. 250
b. 190
c. 070
d. 010
Thanks guys
