The drift angle is the difference
between track and heading, from the
heading to the track, in this case
about 10°, so the track is 260°.
The above diagram shows what
would happen if you simply pointed
the aircraft nose towards the West –
you would drift to Port for the
amount indicated. If you wanted to
arrive over the intended destination,
you would have to point the nose to
the right (i.e. Starboard) enough to
counteract the drift.
All you need to do is draw the same
wind vector on the opposite side of
the line, and measure the length and
angle of the new line to find out
what heading to steer (280°). Don't
forget the variation and deviation
(See Instruments).

Dead Reckoning
This involves the calculation of your
best known position without navaids
or visual fixes. In essence, it involves
drawing the equivalent triangles of
velocity you would create on your
Dalton computer (see below) on a
map, although it is important to
grasp that the triangle's purpose is
more to do with finding directions
and speeds rather than finding a
position. As mentioned above, the
lines you draw will be to scale, so
one 3" long at 50 miles to the inch
would represent 150 kts. When
climbing and descending, take the
mean TAS for the leg, and mean
wind velocity.
If you happen to fly over an object
that can easily be identified from a
map, you have a fix, which can be
used to find what the real wind is,
and your actual groundspeed. Simply
connect a line from your air position
to the fix, and measure the resulting
line between them (the wind vector).
The line between your start point
and the fix would be the Track Made
Good, which could be used to solve
the above problem on the computer.
Remember that these velocities go
together: Heading & Airspeed, Track
& Groundspeed, Wind Direction &
Speed. However, you will be involved
in finding mixed pairs, such as
heading and groundspeed, rather
than the combinations mentioned
above, because you start with a mix
in the first place (you usually know
the airspeed and track already).
Given any four of them, you can
figure out the others purely by
measurement, but you can do this
mechanically with the flight
computer, or whizzwheel, described
in the Flight Planning chapter.
The 1 in 60 Rule
This is a common method used in
solving tracking problems, based on
tangents, which, if you remember
from Pythagoras, can be found by
dividing the length of the opposite
side of the angle to be found by the
adjacent side. Or, in terms of
aviation, dividing the distance off
track by that of the desired track. We
needn't go into the proof here, but
you can end up with a formula:
Error= Distance Off x 60
Distance
Gone
So if, after flying for 40 nm, you are
8 nm off track, your track error angle
would be:
Error= 8 x 60
40
or 12°. This would be doubled the
opposite way to get you back on
track, then applied as a single figure
to keep you there (applying the
correction once would make you
parallel the original track).
To track directly to the original
destination, you would need an extra
bit, called a closing angle, which you
can find by altering the formula:
CA = Distance Off x 60
Distance To Go
Add the combination of closing
angle and track error to the heading
the appropriate way.
If you were intending to track along
a VOR radial, and found you were
actually on a different one, you can

use the 1 in 60 rule to see whether
you were still inside the airway. If the
centreline was 045°, and you were
on the 040° radial, you would be off
track by 5°. If the DME says you are
45 nm away, it is a simple
calculation:
Dist Off = TE x Dist Gone
60
The answer is 3.75 nm, so you are
OK.
Summary
The 1 in 60 rule means that every 1
degree off track represents 1 nm for
every 60 travelled.
If you just want to parallel the track,
alter course by the track error in the
appropriate direction. To go to the
destination, add the closing angle.
To get back on track, alter course by
double the track error. Once there,
the original track plus or minus the
track error will keep you there.
Be aware, though, that the time to
regain track may be more than that
used to create the error in the first
