This page is read only. You can view the source, but not change it. Ask your administrator if you think this is wrong.

The point of this page is to show how to use SkyVector to get the Range/Bearing from different VORs to a desired latitude/longitude. This is useful when Radar operators need to navigate the Citation aircraft to points of interest (without actually having to program in every airport and VOR into IRIS).

-Right-click your starting airport >> click the "PLAN" button next to the airport or airport identifier. A flight plan box should appear in the top left.


-In the space under "Enter waypoints separated by spaces", you can type in the lat/lon coordinate you wish to get the range/bearing to from your starting airport. The lat/lon can be entered in any of the following ways:
  
  * 47.5054,-91.6809
  * 47.5054/-91.6809
  * n47d56m35w91d35m12
  * 344309N/0764157W (NOTAM style)

Where n(N) designates North, d = degrees, m = minutes, w(W) designates West. Make sure to __NOT__ included spaces in you lat/lon coordinates even though it says to do so.

-Click 'Add' and it will show you the range/bearing from your starting point to your coordinates.
