1 E6B Flight Computer VECTORS

2 TRIANGLE of VECTORS HEADING vs TRACK AIRSPEED vs GROUNDSPEED MEASURING ON THE MAP E6B VECTORS BASIC ROUTE SELECTION CIRCUIT JOINING WIND EFFECT ON APPROACH

3 WIND HEADING knots DESIRED TRACK HEADING VS TRACK

4 INITIAL CHECKS - MAP ACCURACY
TO DETERMINE DISTANCE SCALE on CHART RULE

5 NAVIGATION PROTRACTOR
TO DETERMINE TRACK BY COMPARISON TO TRUE NORTH

6 Cross country from Hwy 7 to Lindsay Establish what you know.
Airspeed knots Wind degrees 20 knots Distance nautical miles Track degrees true Educated guess 115 knots ground speed Educated guess correct left 10degrees for wind negated by 11 degrees west variation

8 SET WIND STRENGTH AND DIRECTION

9 ORIENT WIND TO TRACK

10 SLIDE WIND ONTO AIRSPEED MAGNITUDE 102

11 Hwy 7 to Lindsay Airspeed - 102 knots
Wind degrees 20 knots Distance nautical miles Track degrees true Calculated knots ground speed Calculated - correct left 8 degrees for wind Calculated - right 11 degrees for west variation

12 Planning Issues to Consider CYOO to CNY3

13 From CYOO to CNY3 do we go in a straight line? How high?

14 At takeoff, in what direction are first enroute landmarks?

15 How are they oriented to other landmarks, roads, tracks, etc?
Can we find airports? How are they oriented to other landmarks, roads, tracks, etc?

16 UPPER WINDS for cruise vs METAR/TAF winds for circuit

17 C150 CRUISE PERFORMANCE CHART
enroute speed and power choices Headwind or tailwind Long or short trip

18 Completion of FLIGHT PLANNING LOG and preparation of enroute log

19 How high and what route? About 65 miles About 40 minutes @ 90 knots
10 minutes climb and 10 minutes descent would be half the flight! Plane flies best in cruise with best view. Climb is high power - poor view. The end of a large distant landmark is better than a small precise landmark you can’t find. Keep legs simple – AVOID BEING BUSY

20 CYOO real path to CNY3

21 Depart zone North off runway into 010o wind

22 Departure angle check ! Are track and visible landmarks at correct angles?

23 Arrival path to CNY3 Collingwood

24 Winds at 3000 are 060o. Will they back to 350o with the lake?

25 …… or will they continue to veer to 080o or even 100o
…… or will they continue to veer to 080o or even 100o. You need to know before New Lowell!
