EHM-2127 Andrew:
Sotiris . thanks thats what i was looking for you hit it right on the head , so  its a case of looking to  see what rad the intersections are on then use that vor to  find the turn points .

Thanks that makes live easyer because i have never found that on any site yet

And thanks to all  the others who  helped solve this nav problem.

EHM-2029 Sotiris:
One last thing:
if the airways defining an intersection are at approximate right angle (90 degrees) then the VOR2 needle will go from the one extreme to the other very fast (as you are also flying across the airway/radial very fast).
So keep your eyes open, or at least remember which side the needle was at first.

EHM-1749 Hector:
Hi Andrew,
for further understanding on headings, courses, wind correction, true air speeds, groun speeds, etc, you can visit this site:
http://www.luizmonteiro.com/Wind.htm
It will help to enhance your skills.
Don't forget to take the wind into account because it can play tricky things to you.
Have fun and enjoy it.
Hector

Intercepting a VOR radial is straightforward...

Sotiris,

Feel like expanding that out to a "one-page" guide? That was one of the clearest explanations I have ever seen (including the FS/Rod Macchado "default") and I'm sure it'd make a fine addition to the Training Department.

With pleasure! Just give me some time to put it together nicely and I'll post it to you as soon as it's ready.
