Refer to figure.
What magnetic heading is the aircraft on, if the deviation on this heading is -3°?

  • A
    090° (M)
  • B
    093° (M)
  • C
    094° (M)
  • D
    087° (M)

Refer to figure.
Use the acronym C-D-M-V-T, and replace the values you are given in the question:
090° / -3° / M / V / T

You only need to find ‘M’ – the magnetic heading. Therefore, you can disregard the letters V (variation) and T (true heading).

Here you don’t even need to use the acronym CADET to find if you need to add or subtract the variation since it is already given. Therefore:
090 – 3 = 087°M.
