iii.
RETURN TO AIRFIELD
5. CONSIDERATIONS OF AIRMANSHIP AND ENGINE HANDLING
AIRMANSHIP
)
iii. Show the student how to intercept a VOR
radial outbound from a station. Once again
stressing the need for identification.
iv. Introduce the student to drift correction
whilst using the VOR for navigation
purposes.
i. Where possible give the student VOR
radials to intercept and follow
i. It is absolutely vital that the importance of identifying the VOR station is emphasized from the
beginning.
ii. The instructor must of course maintain a sharp lookout throughout all exercises.
ENGINE HANDLING
Nothing new is required in this regard except that the student will tend to forget to monitor the engine
temperatures and pressures as a result of the increased workload form trying to follow the VOR.
6. SIMILARITY TO PREVIOUS EXERCISES
This is similar to all previous exercises with the exception that the navigation is carried out with
reference to VOR’s.
7. DE-BRIEFING AFTER THE FLIGHT
Briefly recap on the various manoeuvres with special emphasis on the following:
i. The tendency to expect the VOR needle to move as the heading is changed (like it does with the
ADF) and when it does not, the student will tend to turn more.
ii. The student will have a tendency to chase the VOR needle when correcting for drift. It must be
stressed early on that a reference heading should be established and all adjustments for drift
should take place around this heading.
v DISCUSS THE STUDENT’S ACTUAL FAULTS
For each fault the instructor must indicate:
i. The symptoms of the fault.
ii. The cause of the fault.
iii. The potential outcome of not correcting the fault.
iv. The action necessary to correct the fault.
9. BREIFLY DISCUSS THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE NEXT LESSON
