TASKS
  • Pilotage and Dead Reckoning
  • Navigation Systems and ATC Radar Services
  • Diversion
  • Lost Procedures

3
Pilotage
  • Flying from one visible landmark to another
  • When one landmark is reached, another more
    distant landmark should be selected

4
Pilotage
  • Apply wind drift correction to maintain desired
    ground track
  • More difficult when areas lack prominent
    landmarks or under conditions of low visibility

5
Dead Reckoning
  • Navigating solely by means of computations based
    on true airspeed, course, heading, wind direction
    and speed, groundspeed, and elapsed time
  • It is deduced reckoning hence the term

6
Navigation Systems
  • Know how to use all navigation systems in your
    airplane - VOR, ADF, LORAN, GPS
  • Determine and control ground track on the basis
    of navigation instrument indications

7
Navigation Systems
  • Communicate with ATC facilities to
  • Participate in VFR radar traffic advisories
  • Terminal radar programs
  • Radar assistance to lost aircraft

8
Diversion
  • Reasons for diversions
  • Low fuel
  • Bad weather
  • Pilot or passenger fatigue or illness
  • Airplane system or equipment malfunction

9
Diversion
  • Procedures
  • Confirm present position
  • Select alternate airport and estimate a heading
    to put you on course
  • Write down the time and turn to new heading

10
Diversion
  • Draw a new course line
  • Refine your heading by pilotage and available
    navigation systems
  • Compute groundspeed, arrival time and fuel

11
Lost Procedures
  • 5 Cs
  • Climb
  • Communicate
  • Confess
  • Comply
  • Conserve

12
Lost Procedures
  • Maintain you original heading and look for
    landmarks
  • Identify the nearest concentration of landmarks
  • Use all available navigation systems and ask for
    help from any ATC or FSS facility

13
Lost Procedures
  • Plan a precautionary landing if weather
    conditions get worse or low on fuel

14
Navigation
  • Time to station
  • Established inbound on a radial rotate the obs
    10o to the left, turn the aircraft 10o to the
    right
  • Note the time and maintain heading until the cdi
    centers

15
Navigation
  • Note the time
  • Time to the station is the same as the time to
    complete the 10o change of bearing

16
Time to station (min)
Note the radial you are on Turn 90o to the
left or right Note the time elapsed between
bearings 60 x Min flown between bearing
change Degrees of bearing change
17
Distance To station (NM)
TAS X Min. flown between bearing change

18
Fuel Required
Rate of fuel consumption x Min to

Navigation
  • When a relative bearing doubles in a specific
    time, the time to the station is that time.
