2. The measured course 042° T. The variation in the area is 6°W and the wind is calm. The deviation is 4° W. In order to follow this course, the pilot must fly a compass heading of

3. A twin-jet aero plane carries out the X-Y flight. When it reaches point K (35°N, 048°W) a non-mechanical event makes the Captain consider rerouting to one of the three following fields. The flight conditions are: - from K to A (distance 847NM, headwind component =18kt) -from K to B (distance 1112NM, tailwind component = 120kt) - from K to C (distance 883NM, wind component = 0) With an aero plane true airspeed of 460 kt, the field selected will be that more rapidly reached
