Күн бұрынDo you want to learn how to find any location within range of a ground based radio navigation aid? It is easy..
This video shows you how to locate a randomly selected town within range of two radio navigation aids. You can use either 1 VOR & DME or 2 x VORs. Both methods are very accurate. GPS is not required nor used for this exercise.
In this exercise, I show you how to locate Woodville, Virginia. A small country town with no airport or navigation aids. It was a randomly selected town within range of two ground based radio navigation aids. This technique can be applied anywhere in the world within range of any ground based radio navigation aid.
If you have anything to add to the video, please leave your comment below. Thank you..

That was a nice simple explanation. Some videos I've seen about vor nav really make it seem very complicated.

You can set the second VOR to TO flag and put frequency in NAV 1 radio to Leesburg VA. That heading is about 360 degrees more or less.

Dammit, I was not expecting to hear a male voice after clicking on Ashley's video.

The map is important and so are the VOR frequencies.

Well thank you. I cannot take credit for it. The tune is one of many royalty free tunes I have in my archives..

When on a flight lesson I do it perfect but in X-Plane I keep doing it wrong. When I put everything in the direction I have to go is acting like the to/from is opposite of each other.

Great vid but I wish you would have gone over actually tuning in the VOR. The problem I'm having is that I'm tuning in the VOR but my needles aren't responding and I'm not getting a TO/FROM indicator. I have a feeling that is has something to do with the GPS but I'm not familiar with the 530 and how that works with VOR.

G'day Chris, I had not thought to create a video on tuning and identifying a VOR. I am not sure if you are talking about in the flight simulator or in real life?? The potential reasons I can think of a VOR needles not responding in real life; being out of VOR reception range, VOR navaid inop (Check NOTAMS), VOR receiver inop or incorrect frequency tuning?? In my old C152, at one stage the VOR receiver antenna disconnected and as a result the VOR did not work. In the flight simulator, VORs have an unrealistic range. In real life, reception of VORs on the ground is quite rare, unless the VOR or VOT is located at the airport. In the flight simulator, you can tune in VORs on the ground even if they are many miles away and not in line of sight. Can you give an example of the situation where you were unable to tuning in the VOR? You can get actual VOR frequencies from skyvector.com for your part of the world..

Can you please explain how you actually set up the DME to work with these locations? From my understanding looking at the sectional chart, Casanova and Linden are VORTAC stations as depicted by their symbols. They don't have DME. So how are you using it? Please explain. Thanks in advance.

You are correct, both CSN and LDN are VORTACS. Which is a VOR/DME (for civilians) and also a TACAN (for military). Each VORTAC has a designated DME frequency, depending on what the VOR frequency is. The DME will always automatically be tuned into the correct DME frequency when you tune into a specific VOR frequency. When flying in real life, the only thing you need to do is make sure the DME is setup to the correct NAVAID, either Nav1 or Nav2. You would also need to identify the DME by listening to the morsecode, which will be the same as the VOR morsecode. (This link on page 9 - 14 explains which DME frequencies are paired with which ILS and VOR frequencies. www.ntia.doc.gov/legacy/osmhome/redbook/4d.pdf ) Hope this helps..

How did you determine bearing and nautical miles to Woodville?
@AshleyWincer 3 жыл бұрын
Hello Crossroads, Using the PDF version of the US Sectional chart (download from here www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/digital_products/vfr/), I drew a line from each VORTAC towards the selected town and measured the bearing and distance. Where the two lines intersect, is where the town is located..
