DR practice
no, joe, you are only guessing. as any pilot on the planet would tell you.
DR is speed vs time vs direction pointed, and your best guess as to where that puts you. that's it, nothing more. Not that simple Jax. But let me try to help you to understand. You go 5 knots " speed" "pointed" west thru a current that is going 5 knot to the north. You can do a DR plot that will tell you the direction you actually went not the direction you were pointed. And it will also take in account of current speed that may help or hinder your speed. It's a real easy plot. Take out an old chart if you have one and use the compass rose to help.... that's the way we teach the kindergardners here. Good Luck, and dont hurt yourself. Ask your mom for a crayon. Joe |
