Intro to Radio Instruments
|
|
________ are used to determine your position relative to a ground transmitter
|
Radio Instruments
|
|
Where your aircraft is pointed
|
heading
|
|
an imaginary line extending outward from a NAVAID
|
radial
|
|
radials are _____ bearings referenced in degrees
|
magnetic
|
|
in radio instruments, the desired track to or from a navigation aid
|
course
|
|
T or F an outbound course intercept is the same as a radial intercept
|
T
|
|
For inbound intercepts, you will need to take the reciprocal of the radial to get it right.
|
T
|
|
Befor using radio instruments, you must…
|
Tune, Identify, Monitor
|
|
Use the ____, to tune the VOR
|
RMU
|
|
Identify the NAVAID by its…
|
Morse code identifier
|
|
The simplest way to go from station to station is to place the bearing pointer at the top of the EHSI, which is called
|
Homing
|
|
A method better than homing, in which you fly a wind corrected heading, is called
|
proceeding direct
|
|
If you are flying in any direction other than directly to or directly away from a station, ther bearing pointer will…
|
move on the EHSI compass card
|
|
In a no wind situation the following two situations are always true…
|
the head of the bearing pointer will fall, the tail of the bearing pointer will rise
|
|
The TO/FROM indicator is dependent only on the…
|
course selected and not the aircraft heading
|
|
CDI
|
course deviation indicator
|
|
The CDI shows the aircraft position relative to the
|
course selected
|
|
Each dot on the face of the EHSI indicators is
|
5 degrees of displacement
|
|
since both the bearing pointer and the CDI provide course information, the displays are consistent when within…
|
10 degrees of the selected course
|
|
When using GPS, the CDI indicates ___ NM off course with full scale deflection
|
5
|
|
The act of using your instrument displays to select and fly to a course
|
course intercept
|
|
intercepting a course that will take you to the selected station
|
inbound intercept
|
|
intercepting a course that will take you away from the selected station
|
outbound intercept
|
|
the heading you choose to fly to accomplish a couse intercept
|
intercept heading
|
|
the angle between your intercept heading and your desired course
|
intercept angle
|
|
For inbound intercepts, roll out of the turn when the bearing pointer is between the
|
upper lubber line and the head of the course arrow to establish and intercept heading
|
|
For outbound intercepts, roll out of the turn on an
|
intercept heading with a suitable angle of intercept
|
|
OUTBOUND 45 intercept
|
use a 45 intercept angle to your desired course (TDC +45)
|
|
OUTBOUND Double the angle method
|
double the difference between the tail of the bearing pointer and the new course to determine an intercept angle
|
|
INBOUND Double the angle method
|
double the difference between the tail of the bearing pointer and the new course to determine an intercept angle
|
|
INBOUND Course to bearing pointer +30 (Charlie Brown +30)
|
turn to a heading 30 degrees beyond the bearing pointer position ( not to exceed 90 degrees intercept angle)
|
|
A simple way to determine a good intercept heading is TDC +45
|
from tail of bearing to desired course + 45
|
|
As a technique outside of __ NM, and using an intercept angle of __ degrees or less, apply about __ degrees of lead prior to turn
|
15, 30, 2
|
|
As a technique inside __ NM and using an intercept angle of __ degrees or less, apply about __ degrees of lead prior to turn
|
15, 30, 4
|
|
______ navigation is used to fly from fix to another fix using a direct track.
|
Fix-to-Fix
|
|
___ and ___ are required for fix-to-fix navigation
|
DME, bearing pointer
|
|
Your present position is always along the ___ of the bearing pointer.
|
tail
|
|
How do you determine the time required to to proceed to the new fix?
|
estimate the distance between the two fixes using the distance from the center to ther outer edge of the EHSI as the scale
|
|
To fly direct to a fix using the GPS, you will
|
Tune, Turn, Visualize, then enter the desired fix into the GPS and proceed direct
|
|
____ is defined as flying a constant distance from a VORTAC or VOR/DME station by reference to DME
|

|
|
To determine your lead point, in nautical miles, use..
|
1% of your groundspeed
|
|
A commonly used method to maintain arcs, is…
|
flying a series of short legs
|
|
If outbound, maitane heading until the bearing pointer is 5-10 degrees____ the reference point
|
below
|
|
If inbound, maintain heading until the bearing pointer is 5-10 degrees ____ the reference point
|
above
|
|
LEAD POINT IN RADIALS =
|
1% of groundspeed x (60/ arc DME)
