VOR Navigation: VOR Basics, Radials, Triangulation, Reverse Sensing, and DME By thecorporatepilotdad A tutorial made by a professional pilot and former CFI to cover the basics of VOR navigation. How to use a VOR can be quite confusing to student pilots. VORs are not difficult, and this video's intent is to make VOR navigation easy with visual presentations and then flying the presentation in Microsoft Flight Simulator and covering the basics of VOR navigation. The video will start with by explaining the parts of the VOR indicator instrument then by explaining a VOR, how to find them, and how they work. How to TUNE and IDENTIFY a VOR using Morse code is demonstrated and shown in the video. VORs can be used to fly to a VOR from the present position, a desired course to or from the VOR, or a second VOR can be used to locate the aircraft's position. Radials, VOR instrument indicators, DME, Reverse Sensing, Chart Supplement, and the Pilot's Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge, and the Private Pilot Airman Certification Standards (ACS) are demonstrated and shown. DME is not always accurate due to slant rage. This concept is visualized and demonstrated. VORs can reverse sense. This phenomenon is shown as well as how to recognize reverse sensing and how to fix it. Sectionals used in the video are from VFRMap.com The top-down image of the Piper Arrow is from JustFlight Piper Arrow add-on for Microsoft Flight Simulator http://justflight.com About the creator of this video: ATP rated 8,000+ hour corporate pilot and former CFI who enjoys making YouTube videos as a hobby along with using A.I. to make thumbnails for videos.

Stuck at home thanks to the Corona virus I started a series of blog posts and videos about flightsim navigation with NDB, VOR, DME, GPS, which might be of interested to those who like to start flying IFR. The first posts are online, more to follow. / Link to the blog

This shows how to figure the distance off course when flying a course to a VOR. The method used in this example shows how to solve the similar type of question on the FAA Instrument (knowledge) Written Exam. 200 feet per dot per nautical mile is used. The distance is in feet and must be divided by 6000 to get the distance off course in nautical miles. thecorporatepilotdad Youtube channel About The Author This video is produced by thecorporatepilotdad.
