Limitations of conventional navigation

Suppose the same aircraft is positioned at Point A as shown

at the bottom of Figure 3-1 and the pilot wishes to navigate

directly to Point C, which is neither a VOR station nor airway

intersection. This pilot has an even more difficult situation.

Assuming the VOR stations are within reception range, the

pilot needs to create two makeshift airways using a navigation

plotter and chart, fly to intercept one of them, then track

to Point C (which the pilot has defined as the intersection

between the two courses).
