Calculating/ applying the variation QDM, QDR, QTE, QUJ
Asked by: Benni2000 2975 views General Aviation, Student Pilot
Dear CFIs
Is there an easy-to-remember rule only applying the variations to calculate the QDR, QDM, QTE, QUJ?
Merely subtract east/ add west does not seem to work. Based on the answers, I am assuming it is something to do with applying the variation to the heading vs. the true course.
But I am unable to ping the logic.
Grateful for any advice!
