AVIA102 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Morse Code
Document Summary
Lab5: ensures the station is operating, ensures you have tuned the correct station, 3 letter morse code or a voice. Tune and identify and test vor: one vor. Find frequency by using cfs or on map. Use the morse code identifier: two vor. Bth have to agree and have to say from. =- each dot on instrument represents two degrees. The needle shows where the track is relative to your position: steer into the needle to get back on track. To/from indicator: tells us if the radial we have tuned is from or to the station, if the indicator shows a flag or off sign you. Heading of aircraft makes no difference to vor indications. Tracking to the station you are travelling on a heading that is the reciprocal of the radial you are tracking. Heading you are flying and the heading on the top of the vor must match. Using a vor to determine a position fix.
