Preparing for PPL NAVIGATION and FLIGHT PLANNING in 2weeks. After watching more than 10 videos and getting confused between drift angle and wind correction angle. This is the best explanation I’ve seen. Now I’m no more frustrated by it. Thank you Sire

[matteozacco]

best explaination i've found so far, you are saving my atpl GNav exam!

Love this series! As someone who has not yet reached the age limit to become a pilot, this is very helpful!

[FarkyDave]

I’m not a pilot, but I found your video very interesting. Love your ATC videos, too.

[Lishemma]

Nice video, thanks for the good content!

2:40 wrong. We learn in ground training that “WEST is BEST & EAST is LEAST”

West in this case would equal +
East in this case would equal -

[ADSwing]

“East is least.” (-) “West is best.” (+)

hello,
I have a question! I did the same exercice but I don't understand the answer :C
CH=5° / Dr= 10° L/ DEV = 2°E and VAR = 1° W.
We want to find the true track. I used your method but I found 18.. And the answer is 356°. Can you help me please ? Thanks and nice video btw ( great for my ppl exam coming soon)

[SHASHIPILOT]

Sir WCA to the subtracted if winds from left??

[julienandonov]

Shouldn't WCA, be twice the drift ? If it is once, then we will fly parallel to the course, if we are in the air and we already drifted by say: "5 NM" then if we correct it only with the drift angle, we will still be not aligned... ?

Also very good advertisement for chocolate
