Here you will create a video and upload to canvas to teach me how to complete the tasks assigned on the attached worksheets.
Be sure to teach all the tasks, read them carefully, there is more than one page.
You may use any resource you like such as Skyvector, paper charts, or ForeFlight, etc.
Your face isn't the focus here, show me how to do the work. Teach me as if I know nothing.
Aviation Map Sectional Chart Surfing 101 - Plotter and Sectional Charts LEARN TO MEASURE DISTANCE WITH A PLOTTER or SkyView: 1. Let's say we are taking a flight from San Jose International Airport (SJC) to Salinas Airport (SNS). Using the plotter for computing DISTANCE, how many nautical miles does it take to get there direct (hint: connect the two airports using your plotter; make sure you are looking at the right side of the plotter)? How do you convert to Statue Miles? Nautical Miles (NM)__________ Statute Miles (SM) ___________ LEARN TO MEASURE TRUE COURSE WITH A PLOTTER or SkyView: 2. What is the TRUE COURSE in degrees we must fly in order to get from SJC to SNS? ----------- degrees LEARN MAGNETIC VARIATION AND USING A COMPASS FOR NAVIGATION 3. What is the MAGNETIC COURSE in degrees we must fly in order to get from SJC to SNS? ----------- degrees LEARN ABOUT YOUR ALTITUDES: Mean Sea Level and Above Ground Level 4. About 17 miles from SJC on your route, you will be able to spot a big antenna tower. What is the HEIGHT of that obstacle? Note that the sectional provides two numbers. Which one is bigger?
