What 4 word term is used to describe the method used to determine if a
vessel is on collision course with yours?

Steady bearing decreasing range.

That's about as basic as you can get.


Correct, though I was thinking of CBDR. Constant bearing decreasing range.



I kind of like "Constant Bearing, Closing Range", a bit more alliterative.

Cheers
