What’s a GNE?
Gross Navigation Error.
10 NM
Why do we plot?
- Because inserting waypoint manually could have been wrong and the error not caught previously.
- To have paperwork to show when loss of traffic separation occurs.
What’s the difference between offset and WX deviation clearance?
Offset: stay on course at the specified distance.
WX deviation: Meander as necessary up to the max distance specified.
