There seem to be a few issues with this question/answer and I would be greatful for any insight.

1. Can someone please validate how the GS Out & GS Home were/are calculated (i've had a stab but nothing seems to consistently marry with what is used in the answer)

2. Is the answer actually correct? (ie, " B " where is 116 coming from ?)

Hi T117Tim,

Could you please confirm which version of the textbook you are currently using?

It looks like there was an error with that question previously and it has since been amended. You are correct 167kts should have been used, and the correct answer is 187nm, which is reflected in the latest version of the book.

Hope this helps,

Harry

Hi Tim,

Just a couple of notes first:-
From the CR3 manual, if the drift is more than 10º then Effective TAS must be considered, otherwise it is ignored.
Check your magnetic wind direction as it should be 244ºM, but that would not make a great difference.

Yes Time to PNR is 67.2 minutes which gives a distance to the PNR of 187nms. You are correct there.

These answers are reflected in the current copy of the text book. If you have recently purchased your copy, I would ask your supplier for the latest printed version.

Cheers W

The Errata's are generally removed from the Website when the newest version of the book is published, it would appear that your using a much older version of the textbook, that will make passing the CASA exam more difficult for you. CASA is in a constant flux of amendment's of the legislation that we do our best to keep up with and intern offering the most current versions.
Please make sure you are studying from the most current version.
