Hello There,

There is not much information about VOR interception in the book, but many questions about intercepting. I also purchased online video assuming that it will cover the topic but did not had much information. Could you please suggest some text which can teach intercepting VOR type questions.

Thank you

Hi Nixor,

It really depends on the distance that you are from the station and how quickly you want or need to intercept the radial. It is probably best to intercept at an angle of less than 90 degrees, and wait for the CDI to move before adjusting your heading. The closer you are to the station, a shallower intercept angle would be better, provided that you have turned towards the desired radial.
There are several answers on the internet if you search.

Cheers W

It appears you're asking about confusion related to VOR (VHF Omni-directional Range) interception, which is a common challenge for pilots. Understanding how to intercept a VOR adial (a specific magnetic course TO or FROM a VOR station) involves a few key steps:The VOR is[url= https://spacebarcounter.org/ ]spacebar counter[/url] a command instrument when the OBS and the DI (compass) are in agreement - this is useful when tracking directly TO or FROM the VOR.A VOT location and frequency can be found in the Airport/Facility Directory (A/FD)
