What is the approximate radial of DOL VOR/DME, which indicates the turn overhead point 5 on route B (purple)?
Remark: Radials and bearings are approximate
Refer to figure.
Radial is a magnetic bearing extending from a VOR (QDR).
1. Firstly, locate the DOL VOR/DME symbol and turning point 5 on route B (purple).
2. The green circle around the DOL VOR/DME works as a protractor, which is aligned with the Magnetic north. Thus, any straight line emanating from the centre of the VOR symbol represents a magnetic bearing or radial (or QDR).
3. Draw a straigh line from the centre of the VOR symbol intersecting the turning point 5.
4. Using the green circle-protractor, the straight line passes through 245°.
5. Since the green circle-protractor is aligned with the Magnetic north, then the drawn line is magnetic bearing 245° or radial 245.
