. An aircraft is flying on a heading of 270°(M). The VOR OBS is also set to 270° with
the full left deflection and FROM flag displayed.
In which sector is the aircraft from the VOR ground station?

d) SE

. An aircraft is flying on the true track 090° towards a VOR station located near
theequator where the magnetic variation is 15°E.

c) right with 'FROM' showing
d) left with 'TO' showing
. An aircraft is on the 120° radial from a VOR station. Course 340° is selected on the
HSI (Horizontal Situation Indicator). If the magnetic heading is 070° the deviation
bar relative to the aeroplane model will be:
