This is how remember it - in MD-11 you have to be below 18,000 ft for the VOR tracking to work. It is only meant for flying approaches.

Pah. To navigate a Woodpigeon, all you need is a compass, a stop watch, and a map. Now that is proper flying. [Also useful are a pencil, sliderule, protractor, flask of tea, pack of sarnies, cash in various foreign currencies, phrase book, GPS etc.,][And if you still get lost, you can stop and ask but remember - real men never ask directions!].

Ok Your war is right but for correct navigation with Charts, compass, Pencil and spot watch, you need the correct actual winds *g*

Dude, you just don't get it. I will make this as simple as possible. Step one, take off glove. Step two, lick finger. Step three, hold finger up (avoiding temptation from nose). Step four, rotate finger.
