Instructions
1. If an aircraft is heading northeast at an altitude of 6,000 feet and the chart shows a landmark at a heading of 45 degrees, what would be the aircraft's position relative to the landmark?
2. Calculate the distance between two waypoints on the chart if the scale shows 1 inch equals 10 nautical miles. If the distance on the chart is 3.5 inches, what is the actual distance?
3. An aviation chart shows a restricted area marked with a circle. If the radius of the circle is 5 statute miles, what is the diameter of the restricted area?
4. A pilot is flying at a speed of 200 knots and needs to reach a destination 150 nautical miles away. How long will the flight take in hours and minutes? Show your calculations.
5. On the chart, a runway is oriented at a magnetic heading of 270 degrees. What is the direction of the runway in clock terms (e.g., north, south, etc.)?
6. If a chart shows an airport at coordinates 33°N 112°W, what is the latitude and longitude of the airport? Explain what these numbers represent.
7. A flight path is plotted on the chart with a departure point at 10,000 feet and an arrival point at 7,000 feet. What is the total descent required for this flight?
8. Imagine you are plotting a flight plan on a chart. Describe three things you would look for to ensure the flight is safe and efficient.
