  • In this video lesson, I describe all of the details of the VOR symbol on the VFR Sectional Aeronautical Chart. We cover topics such as identifying a VOR type by its symbol, identifying the elements of the VOR information box, how to communicate with a flight service station over a VOR, and everything else related to the VOR depiction on a sectional.
    This lesson data is directly from the FAA Chart Users Guide.

    IMHO, both Will Liebhaber and Cyndy Hollman's aviation videos are the best you could find. They focus on clarity and excel at it.

    Great explanation! Thank you for breaking down the small details. If you have a chance, could you explain the Dallas'FT. Worth International (DFW) navigational facility? The information box has a VORTAC symbol but there is a VOR/DME symbol next to the airport. Which one is the actual navigation facility for this airport? (FAA question)

    Is VOR compass rose always 20 nm diameter? It would make a great quick reference for gauging distances, like during diversions.

  • @sevenwhitehorses

    You are incorrect about the VOR pointing TO magnetic North. It points to where magnetic North WAS at the time the VOR was constructed unless it has been re-calibrated since that time (which is extremely unlikely due to having to change a multitude of intersections) otherwise this is an excellent presentation and I enjoy the calm and well-narrated presentation. The error between the current Magnetic North and the Arrow pointing to 360 or 0 on the compass rose is often referred to as declination.

      Thanks for the reply. Charts and procedures are updated anytime magnetic variation for a VOR exceeds 3 degrees. There was a study to increase it to 5 degrees but I am not sure if it was implemented. Each time variation changes 3 (5?) degrees the VOR is recalibrated, airways and charts changed, and everything is flight checked. Tedious to say the least.

      Also, some stations in areas of magnetic unreliabilty (such as northern Canada VORs may be oriented to True north. )

    Hello, great video ... just one question... Why is the frequency underlined?

    • @jessecastro7678
      @jessecastro7678 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Means the frequency cannot send or receive voice communications

    Compass rose is not always surrounded a VOR, for ex. RAL VOR doesn't have a compass rose.

    • @Klaviation
      @Klaviation  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      You are correct, terminal VORs do not have a compass rose. A terminal VOR range limits its usefulness for navigation outside of the airport environment. I was speaking more as a tool to find VORs on a sectional that will be used for point-to-point navigation.
