Flight Planning Using E6B Calculator | How to Determine Magnetic Heading

This video walks through a flight planning problem on the FAA private pilot exam. The video shows how to determine the magnetic heading for a flight using a navigational plotter and E6B flight computer - essential for any student pilot in flight school. Student pilots will need to determine how to calculate the magnetic heading when planning a VFR cross country flight. Student and private pilots in flight school who are preparing for the private pilot written exam or private pilot check ride will often be asked to plan a flight and knowing how to calculate the magnetic heading and time en route is essential for any aviator. Pilots should refer to chapter 16 of the pilot's handbook of aeronautical knowledge for more reference material related to navigational topics such as flight planning, pilotage, dead reckoning, magnetic compass deviations/variations and how to use an E6B calculator for flight planning purposes. 0:23: Private Pilot Written Exam Question - Determine Magnetic Heading for a Flight 0:35: Determine True Course Using Navigational Plotter 0:57: Using E6B Flight Computer to Calculate True Heading 1:23: Adjusting for Magnetic Variation and Deviations **Check out our private pilot written test prep course at the link below** https://evskyworks.com/p/faa-private-...
