Refer to figure.

For this question you need a plotter to find the true track from ST ABBS VOR to ASRUS RNAV non-compulsory waypoint.

  • Firstly, find the exact position of both ST ABBS and ASRUS symbols on the E(LO)2 chart, using the coordinates given and draw a line with your pencil to connect these two points.
  • Center your plotter at ST ABBS VOR symbol, since the question asks for the true track measured at ST ABBS.
  • Align the upper section of your plotter with the line which connects the two points.
  • Rotate the plotter’s disc, until its arrows are parallel with the chart’s meridians and indicate the True North.
  • The aligned with the route ST ABBS to ASRUS plotter’s arrow indicates the True Track 217o.
