FROM /87 * VOR intercept angle Look on the same side as the needle for a heading to intercept Look 30 degrees to the left for a 30 degree intercept /87 * /87 * /87 * /87 * VOR – Intercepting / Tracking Rules of Thumb 60 : 1 = 60 NM @ 1 degree off course = 1 NM off course Distance vs. Intercept Heading(Angle) - 0 to 5 DME ? less than 30 degrees - 5 to 10 DME ? 30 – 45 degrees - 10+ DME ? 45+ degrees /87 * /87 * Time and Distance to Station Wingtip Bearing Change method: Get station off wingtip and fly across a set number of degrees of bearing change (10 makes the math easier) Time = 60 X minutes flown /Degrees of bearing change Distance = TAS X minutes flown /Degrees of bearing change /87 * /87 * VOR Checks Within preceding 30 days for IFR VOT (VOR Test facility) -360 FROM or 180 TO Designated Ground Checkpoint Published in AFD +/- 4 of designated radial Designated Airborne checkpoint Published in AFD +/- 6 of designated radial Airway checkpoint 91.171(b)(4) +/- 6 of airway radial Dual VOR check Tune both to same station. 4 degrees of each other /87 * VOT: VOR TEST SIGNAL VOR Test Facilities (VOTs) Availability/frequency listed in A/FD 1. Tune frequency 2. Identify dots or continuous tone. 3. Select 360o. “From” should appear. Needle centered (+/- 4o). 4. Select 180o. “TO” should appear. Needle centered (+/- 4o). /87 * VOR Checks Procedure for VOR Checkpoints Set OBS to desired radial CDI must center within limits Must record in aircraft log or other record: Signature Location Error Date SLED /87 * VOR GROUND CHECKPOINT /87 * AIRBORNE VOR CHECKPOINT /87 * RMIVOT check Which RADIAL does a VOT transmit? What is the reciprocal TO? /87 * RMI Dual VOR check What is the maximum allowable tolerance between the two? What if you’re airborne? /87 * What is your pos
