Hi all
When I did my CPL we had a formula that for every one mile we were off track we would turn left/right 30 degrees for x-amount of minute's. This was based on a TAS of 120 Knots, just wondering what is the formula to work it out for other speeds as I am flying a Grob 115 that has no GPS or DME and a VOR receiver that has a questionable accuracy! Just want to make sure that my nav is up to scratch before I make a dipstick of myself next weekend:ok:
