Chapter 10, VOR Flashcards
VOR operates in which frequency range?
VHF
VOR signals are transmitted as what type of wave?
Space wave
Where is the deviation from a selected VOR
radial displayed?
HSI
At which radial will the directional wave be
out of phase by 90 degrees with the non-directional wave?
090 degrees
At which radial will the directional signal be
in phase with the non-directional signal?
000 degrees
VOR navigation aids are identified by how
many alpha characters?
Three
VOR radials are referenced to
Magnetic north
The RMI has two pointers coloured red and
green; these are used to indicate
The bearing of two separately tuned VOR
stations
Morse code tones are used to specify the
VOR
Identification
The intersection of two VOR radials provides
what type of position fix?
Theta–theta
An aircraft is flying on a heading of 090
degrees to intercept the selected VOR radial
of 180 degrees; the HSI will display that the
aircraft is
Right of the selected course
The DVOR navigation aid has an omnidirectional transmitter located in the
Centre
When flying overhead a VOR navigation aid,
the reliability of directional signals
Decreases
Reporting points using VOR navigation aids
Intersection of two radials
With increasing altitude, the range of a VOR
transmission will be
Increased
