An aircraft at latitude 10° South flies north at a GS of 890 kph. What will its latitude be after 1.5 h?
What is the magnitude, or absolute value, of magnetic inclination (dip) at the magnetic south dip pole?
When accelerating on an easterly heading in the Northern hemisphere, the compass card of a direct reading magnetic compass will turn:
According to FAA AC 43.13-1B, paragraph 12-37, a direct-reading compass should be swung when:
A Lambert conformal conic chart has a constant of the cone of 0.80. A straight line course drawn on this chart from A (53°N 004°W) to B is 080° at A; course at B is 092°(T). What is the longitude of B?
Using the given coordinates, what are the radial and DME distance from CRK VOR/DME (N5150.4 W00829.7) to position N5140 W00730 (magnetic variation 7°W)?
BEL VOR/DME is at 54°39.7'N, 006°13.8'W. What are the radial and DME distance to 54°10'N, 007°10'W? For this exercise, use WGS84 and assume station declination 7°W; neglect DME slant-range height effects. Round the final radial and distance to the nearest degree and nautical mile.
For the geodesic from CRN NDB (53°18.1'N, 008°56.5'W) to BEL VOR (54°39.7'N, 006°13.8'W), calculate the average magnetic track as the arithmetic mean of the initial and final true tracks, converted using an assumed area variation of 7°W. Use WGS84 and round the final track and distance to the nearest degree and nautical mile. What values are obtained?
Given: SHA VOR (N5243.3 W00853.1) radial 223°, CRK VOR (N5150.4 W00829.7) radial 322°, VAR 8°W. What is the aircraft position?
Given: SHA VOR/DME (N5243.3 W00853.1) radial 048°/22 NM, VAR 8°W. What is the aircraft position?
