With regard to direction, the difference between True North and Magnetic North is referred to as Variation, a simple definition is:

What is the difference between Course, Heading, and Track?

If you were at the geographic North Pole any direction you faced would be ______?

Find the Magnetic Heading and Compass Heading if True heading is 030°, Variation 7°W, Deviation 2°E:

What is a line on a chart that connects points of equal magnetic dip called?

Define Deviation and Variation.

What is an Isogonic line?  What is an Isogonal? What is the difference between the two?

What is an Agonic line?

Find the relative bearing if the true heading is 100°, true bearing is 359°:

Find True heading and Compass heading if Magnetic heading is 010°, Variation is 3°E, Deviation is 4°W:

Find the True heading if the relative bearing is 050°, true bearing is 300°:

You cross a small town at 0325 UTC followed by a railway junction some 27 nm further on at 0340 UTC. What is your Ground Speed?

To descend 6000 ft in 12 minutes you require a steady rate of descent of ... fpm.

To descend from 6500 ft AMSL to 2000 ft AMSL in 8 minutes will require a rate of descent of ....fpm.

With a Ground Speed of 120 kt, how many nm would you travel descending from 9000 ft AMSL to 3000 ft AMSL at 500 fpm?

Aircraft A is flying at a speed of 400 knots, aircraft B at a speed of 200 knots. If the aircraft are closing what is their relative speed? What if they were opening?

The equivalent in knots of 35 meters per second is:

65 knots converted to feet per second is:

Latitude is defined as:
