Learn how to use a VOR with an HSI. Along with the explanation, there will be a moving map on screen showing the aircraft's position during the video.
How to use a VOR including Navigation Basics such as tuning and determining the course to be flown by turning the OBS, how to fly a Victor Airway, and 1 type of changeover point used in VOR navigation. A tutorial with Navigraph in Microsoft Flight Simulator where technical terms are kept as simple as possible. Navigraph helps make this tutorial better by showing aircraft position on a map for reference. Most of the technical terms have been omitted in an effort to teach the basics of VOR navigation.
If you are preparing for a Private Pilot checkride, this oral exam guide is a must buy. I used it myself back in the 90s and had all my students use it to prepare for checkrides when working as a Flight Instructor - amzn.to/3Cgbl7X
NOTE: In a real aircraft, the VOR needs to be identified with Morse Code. This identification process is not shown in the tutorial as the engine noise is turned down to a level where the Morse code cannot be heard so my voice CAN still be heard --
This video focuses on the practical aspect of using a VOR navigation basics to go from point A to point B on airways, or just simply flying to or from a VOR.
The TBM 930 is the aircraft of choice in this video tutorial and thanks to Navigraph, we have ship position on the map for reference in the video.

Ever wonder how aircraft navigated at night before modern ground and space-based navigation methods? Find out here: th-cam.com/video/lz6uD5lau0M/w-d-xo.html
i was planning to write the steps yesterday like you did @0:54
Thank you for the very clear tutorial
You are very welcome. It helps having Navigraph. I don’t have it anymore but it’s a great product.
Wow! This is a great tutorial! Your channel and training is straight to the point. I'm using the TBM like crazy thanks to you.
Glad to hear that. You'll be able to use every piece of navigation equipment in the TBM from videos on my channel. They are all covered. I try to make all my videos to the point because I can't stand watching a video that is 30 minutes long when the part everyone needs in the video is 20 seconds long.
Another Top Notch tutorial video. Perfect explanation. For some reason, I was only flying to a VOR never from. Duh!.... Thanks
Thanks! Now you know you can go to and from any navaid.
I'm subbed with TCPD, noticed Z06. I have one, pleased to meet you! Corvette wave!
@@Ron-cz8bt Hello and a vette wave back!!..
Thanks. Your videos are really helpful, well-explained, and clear. You take such a lot of care with them, including things like annotations, and the results are smashing. What a collection you are building!
Thank you. I check each video about 5 times before I publish it to make sure nothing is left to question.
@@thecorporatepilotdad It shows! By the way, here's a suggestion. How about a tutorial on the Standard Overhead Join way of joining a left or right traffic pattern, as used in the UK for airfields. I've just uploaded my poor attempt at doing this at Blackpool, UK, EGNH.
@@Anglezarke That is a great idea and I thought about doing so when I did my pattern entry video last week. I saw some entry methods for UK airports and thought about including those methods too.
Mr. Scott, I concur. He's quite the polite guy who speaks normal (lol), no arrogance, no gimmicky stuff. Excellent instructor.
@@Anglezarke I"m subbed with TCPD, perusing thru the comment section and saw your comment (obviously!). I'll head over to your channel and see what you're talking about. Cheers from CA, USA.
Thanks for your videos. Makes me lust after a TBM. We have an owner here at KVRB with a blue one, and it is amazing.
Fixed. Thank you so much!
Interested in Navigraph. Thought I'd see if TCPD has info on it...yep! So, onward with this video. I know it's gonna be great!
Navigraph is awesome. I have it on my iPad. Having the airplane position on it is very helpful. I once did a long flight and left it running on auto pilot. I took the ipad outside and there was the aircraft position moving along on the map. Navigraph has updated charts for the whole world. I did an ILS approach at Pyongyang, North Korea because it had charts for it. They use the identical Jeppesen charts pilots use.
@@thecorporatepilotdad Thank you for all your replies. I surely don't expect them, I know you're swamped with REAL and virtual flying AND TH-cam AND being a family man. And...you reply to everyone, incredible. Your info on your setup is very helpful, the Ipad, computer etc. In addition to Navigraph, I know there's Skyvector, going to look at that as well. Please don't feel obligated to reply. I surely don't expect it! See you in your other videos! LOL
@@Ron-cz8bt no worries. If people can take the time to comment I try to make it a point to reply.
After a few requests, here is an updated, and more basic VOR tutorial. How often do you use a VOR vs GPS to navigate in FS2020?
All the time now. Navigraph rocks
@@kerbalette156 Navigraph does rock. Having worldwide chart coverage is very cool. Last week I did an ILS approach in Pyongyang, North Korea.
Thank you for this great video. Much appreciated. I did notice you were using the Heading "HDG" knob a couple of time, I know the first was intended to go off course, the second confused me a bit. Also, it would be great if you could please explain how to use the screen below the PFD/MFD where you dialed the frequencies. Still a great video, thanks
I looked at it and I may have used heading to intercept the course on a smaller intercept angle vs letting this sim do it at 45 (or more sometimes). Use the CRS knob to center the needle and then you can use nav or hdg to follow the course but nav is much easier. I didn't show tuning frequencies because I have it in other videos felt like I was beating a dead horse showing it again. I have a TBM ILS video that shows how to enter frequncies.
@@thecorporatepilotdad Got it, thank you so much
Any tipps on how to find VORs easily within navigraph? I am still trying to find them visually (based on icon), whichs is a pain
There is not a way to find just the VORs in a search or anything. An easy way, look at the low enroute chart and just follow the airways. They will lead you to a VOR.
Hi, thanks so much for the great quality of your tutorial. Really useful.
However, it's sometimes disturbing that your explanations don't follow right on the spot what the image is showing. Like at 3'45" when you say we should set the needle at 202° and you actually go up to 233°... then you explain a bit later that it was on purpose...
I had to go back a few times in order to understand.
The course needle is set to 202 degrees, but the heading bug was set to 233 degrees. The 233 degree heading was selected so the airplane could be flown off course to the right.
@@thecorporatepilotdad I watched it on my phone and couldn't see accurately. I probably shouldn't... My bad, I must apologize.
@@xthib1 no problem. It happens. Seeing it on the monitor was challenging as well.
Are there different ranges and types of VOR? I'm a bit confused on map settings in TBM VOR range - PFD Map Settings. Are the ranges for map or signal strength of the station?
Yes. My old VOR video has that info in the beginning. They range from 25 NM to 130NM. TACAN can go 200. DME Can go 200 NM. I'm not sure how it's modeled in FS2020 though.
@@thecorporatepilotdad I'm on it, thanks.
@@thecorporatepilotdad Quick ?? What are the settings for in the TBM, are they just for map range showing. Not 100 percent on all map settings in TBM. I am using the mod.
@@z0688 I'm not sure which settings you're referring to. Can you screen shot and email them to me? I don't have that mod on mine.
My dear friend, first of all receive a warm greeting and best wishes of happy new year 2021 to you and the whole family. I wish you the best of life, peace, prosperity and success in all the plans that you undertake in this new year, but above all good health. I am bothering you today because I need your advice and wisdom that experience gives. I have had problems with my airplanes in the sense that when I have to taxi the runways at different airports, the turning radius, the ability to make curves either to exit or enter a runway, is not enough and I got stuck halfway around the curve. How can I increase the turning capacity of the front landing gear to be able to complete a curve without these problems. I see that you, in the different tutorials that you explain, turn the taxiways with impressive ease. Thanks for your help to solve this silly problem that is presenting itself to me. As additional information, I am using the joystick to make curves, I have deactivated the pedals because they also gave me those problems to do this maneuver and I thought it was them but no, with the joystick as well. I think it must be a misconfigured setting or something like that, but I've tried everything and nothing solves it. Greetings, Oswaldo
Oswaldo. Greetings! I do use rudder pedals. I use pedals all the way in one direction and if I need more turn authority I'll use the brake on the side in the direction I'm turning. If I need even more in q multi engine airplane I'll use differential power... increase the power on the side opposite the direction I'm turning.
@@thecorporatepilotdad Thank you very much for your prompt reply! I appreciate this. Excellent ideas and suggestions I will apply immediately. Stay healthy, take care of yourself and take care of the family. 🙏
Best regards,
Oswaldo
