hey bob got another question.
you are flying from Oakey to Roma via w369
OBS set to 277. your VOR is saying you are 1 dot right of target circle.
Maintaining a heading of 274, what is the heading required to intercept track at Damin?

You don't have enough information in the question to answer if you want to use the one-in-sixty rule. Your VOR is telling you you are 4° right of track but you would also need the distance you have flown since leaving Oakey.
In practice you would simply turn onto a heading 30° or so to the left of 277°M (say 247°M and fly that heading until the CDI centred. You would then be back on track. A heading 4° to the left of your original heading of 277°M (273°M) would then keep you on track.
