Master the navigation log - from true course to compass heading - with the dead reckoning math, checkpoint strategy, and fuel planning that keep you found on a cross-country flight.
PatternBuild a complete navigation log, fly pilotage checkpoints, and apply dead reckoning - the foundational skills every GPS-era student must master before checkride.
PatternThe winds aloft forecast uses true degrees, not magnetic - a skipped detail that directly corrupts your groundspeed calculation and fuel reserve math.
PatternLearn the wind triangle, wind correction angle, and why your nose and your track point in two different directions.
PatternLearn how the wind correction angle works, why you point the nose off course to fly straight, and how to solve it on an E6B.
PatternLearn how to solve the wind triangle with an E6B to find the heading and groundspeed that actually get you to your destination.
