CHAPTER II DETERMINATION OF THE "D. R." ALTITUDE AND AZIMUTH The "D. R." altitude, or the altitude of the sun as it would be seen from the place in which the traveller supposes himself to be, can be found by mathematical calculation only. This calculation involves the solution of a spherical triangle, and this can be effected only by the formulas of trigonometry. By the aid of special tables, or mechanical devices, however, these calculations may be put into such simple form that the practical navigator need have no knowledge of trigonometry and can solve the problem with a few simple additions. The navigator begins with his "D. R." position, that is, with the latitude and the longitude of the place in which he believes himself to be, together with the chronometer time at which he made an observation of the sun. The chronometer time is first corrected for "chronometer error," and then to this result is applied the "equation of time," as taken from the "Nautical Almanac," and thus is found the Greenwich Apparent time at which the observation was made. From this subtract the longitude of the place, if west (expressed in hours); add, if east; and the result is the Local Apparent time, or ship's time. This measures the angular distance of the sun east or west of the meridian, which angular distance is known as the Hour Angle. On ordinaryclocks or chronometers, however, the noon hour is denoted by twelve (XII), so that an apparent time of eleven (XI) hours means that it will require one hour for the sun to reach the meridian. Hence, in the morning the hour angle is found by subtracting the apparent, or ship's time, from twelve (12) hours, but in the afternoon the apparent time and the hour angle are identically the same. The hour angle, thus...

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Abstract: Performance based navigation (PBN), an enabler for the Federal Aviation Administration's Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen), supports the design of more precise flight procedures. However, these new procedures can be visually complex, which may impact the usability of charts that depict the procedures. This study evaluated whether there are performance benefits from simplifying aeronautical charts by separating visually complex area navigation (RNAV) and required navigation performance (RNP) procedures onto different chart images. Forty-seven professional pilots who were qualified to operate with RNAV and RNP participated. They used high-fidelity current and modified charts to find specific information from RNAV (RNP) approach and RNAV Standard Instrument Departure (SID) chart images that were shown one at a time on a computer monitor. Response time and accuracy were recorded. Results showed a consistent and significant reduction in the time to find information from the simplified chart images. Response time varied linearly with a simple clutter metric, the sum of visual elements in the depiction, indicationg serial visual search. Most questions were answered with high accuracy, but some questions about altitude constraints yielded low accuracies. This experiment did not explore practical disadvantages of separating paths, such as the increased number of images to handle."--Technical report documentation page.

Download or read book Formulas for the E6 B Air Navigation Computer written by Frank Hitchens and published by Auk Academic. This book was released on 2013-07-03 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formulas for the Air Navigation Computer is written for pilots and air navigators at all levels of experience from the novice to the professional. The book is self-help on how to use the E6-B Air Navigation Computer. An E6-B Air Navigation Computer is a circular slide rule with a wind slide on the reverse side. It is dedicated to performing all calculations related to pre-flight planning and in-flight air navigation. Every pilot has an E6-B Air Navigation Computer, which is supplied with a very brief instructional booklet when the E6-B is purchased. However, the booklet only covers a few basic formulas, and many more formulas are required for passing the pilot navigation exams at various levels and, of course, for all operational flying. Obtaining all these different formulas from various sources is time consuming, as this author has discovered over the years. They are not readily available in one book. This is the reason for writing Formulas for the Air Navigation Computer; it is a unique collection of air navigation computer formulas. The formulas are written as they appear when set up on the E6-B Air Navigation Computer. A full description on how to solve each formula is included, along with a worked example and also the methods for using the wind slide to calculate wind triangle and other navigational problems associated with the wind slide. The book is easy to follow by the novice pilot and a convenient reference source for the more experienced pilot. The book is complete with all the formulas a pilot of any level should need to know. It is laid out in a simple way with over 122 formulas and methods, covering Time, Speed & Distance, Air Speed, Altitude Navigation, VNAV, One-in-Sixty Rule, Wind triangle Calculations, Wind Finding methods, Fuel Calculations, Pressure Pattern Navigation and more.
