VOR saved my bacon on my private cross country in 1975. I was not listening or it just didn’t sink in when the flight weather station briefer told me my destination airport was two miles visibility with fog. That was the second leg on the trip. I blissfully took off and when I got near my destination I couldn’t find the airport cause of the fog. I took radials off of two VORs and when they crossed figured out where I was and where the airport was. Finally found it.

During my flight training days, my instructor had me verify that I tuned to the proper VOR by listening to the audio Morse Code identifier and then matching the sound to the printed Morse Code elements on the chart. I told her that I confirmed it by ear already. She didn't believe me. I then informed her that I held an Amateur Extra Class Ham Radio license from the 80s, whereby I was required to demonstrate my ability to receive Morse Code at 20 WPM by ear and that I had my Ham license in my pocket if she needed proof. She just said "Oh...ok, then." Hehehe.

@@FreePilotTraining i don't need VOR, I'm not a pilot but I'm interested in this and I've played right SIM some years ago. I never understood those maps but now I do! This video is great. The kindly thing I wasn't 100% clear on was if I was left or right of the angle line for to make a correction. So if I was flying To/through and the line was left of center, the aircraft is the center, so do I get to get on the line by turning towards the line, or do I turn the aircraft to make the line come to me which would be a right turn? I'm guessing I'd turn left to move the aircraft over the line that's off to the left to bring it back to the center? Great video. Well done. I'm sure these videos will bring you lots of students.

Great lesson! Well articulated, illustrated and demonstrated. An other good trick is: FROM top TO bottom. To find out on what radial you are on, rotate the OBS and when the needle centres if you have a FROM indication, you read your radial position on top of the indicator. Conversely, if you get a TO flag, you read your radial position from the bottom of the I indicator. Thanks for the video, well done!

@Deezorz Жыл бұрын

You mentioned the adding or subtracting 180 to see the opposite bearing. I have an even easier one for you. Let’s say you’re at 030 from the station and wanna fly directly to it. Add 2 to the first number, subtract 2 from the second number. That means 210. Now does it work the other way around? Sure! You’re at 350 from the station and wanna go directly to it. This time turn it around: first subtract 2 from the first number, and add 2 to the second number. That means 170. Keep in mind, if it’s below 180, you wanna first add, then subtract. If it’s above 180, you first wanna subtract, then add. If you don’t keep that in mind, you’ll either be in negatives or above 360. Good luck guys!

@FreePilotTraining Жыл бұрын

@PlanetaryNukeFS1 Жыл бұрын

Was always told add 200 and minus 20. Opposite of 090? 90+200=290 - 20 = 270. And for 270, Minus 200 and add 20. 270 - 200 = 070 +20 = 090. Practically the same as yours but with more zero's.

It made is so simple when I took real flying lessons.

Your video is one of the better, and more understandable, videos that explain the basics of how to use a VOR in the real world. When you were talking about how to identify a VOR station you mentioned that a pilot can “turn the sound on”. Actually, you would need to turn the squelch “off” and then turn the volume up enough to be able to hear the Morse code identifier. It is worth mentioning that if turn the squelch off and you don’t hear anything, assuming that the volume is turned up enough to hear it, that means that the station is unusable, possibly for maintenance reasons or the station is out-of-service at that time.
