jensdad - you were closer with that first answer.
No-one else want a punt? |
Belgium then???
I stab at Liege |
No no no Bear - South...
jensdad had it with France... My flight planning software says 160° - (see Airbus A320 ND above) or thereabouts...from Lerwick. Good hunting Bear. |
Colmar has some hills in the background.
But seems to be to far away? |
They are - as you say - too far away.
But your compass might need a dip - round to the right a bit. |
S France - Pyrenees???
|
Right country - wrong mountains Asters,
If you're down there see if you can tune to the Toulouse VOR (TOU 117.70) - go TO then fly the O/Bound Rad of about 50ēM. You'll lose the VOR at 130NM or so but you'll need to keep flying a fair bit after that until you get there. |
Not many navigations skills in evidence here.
Auxtank has told you where it is and how to get there ! |

Yes - Google Earth.
Make sure you set the distance measuring scale to nautical miles. I'm sure you have that, but there's one simple thing to do before it. :) |
I think it might be Bellegarde - Vouvray.

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....f0a82f4dea.jpg You win the prize... https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....dc2d3affca.jpg - though note This Vouvray is not THE Vouvray - Loire Valley, where said celebrated wines come from. Bear - a good free air nav map is Skyvector https://skyvector.com SkyDemon is very good but you need a subscription. Flap40 you have control. |
Google earth
A right I used Google maps up to now . GE gives distance but not heading? |
GE gives bearing and distance. Bearing is degrees true.
|
Ta. Open house.

Though you're correct in that LTP is indeed on that course. By that token if you'd followed the nav clue I gave Asturas56 From VOR TOU outbound 50ēM you would have flown slightly N of LTP and closer to VOR LSE at Lyon. If I do another - Navigate to the aerodrome - challenge I shall ensure that all given nav clues fit together and can be cross-referenced. It was coincedence that the bearing did in this case - so well spotted. OH has been called by winner Flap40 |
I, for one, have no idea what any of that means - apart from the OH.
|
I follow the railways..............
