VECTOR: Conjuction of 2 parameters:
      • Module: Quantity, actual value, dimension
      • Direction: “Where is it going to or coming from”
DEFINITION: Triangle made up of 3 vectors

      • AIR VECTOR …………………….(TAS / TH-MH-CH)
      • GROUND VECTOR ……………..(GS / TT-MT-CT)
      • WIND VECTOR ………………….(W / V)

 For every flight planification we must find out all of the 6
       parameters
 Whenever we have 2 of those 3 vector we can calculate
       the other.
                             Graphicaly over a map
            Two ways:
                             Using a navigation computer
DEFINITION: Vector representing the actual path the
      aircraft flies inside the airmass.
      Defined by 2 parameters:

             • TH = Heading the aircraft would actually fly if
                    there where no drift
             • TAS = Speed the aircraft would have above
                    the ground if there where no wind
DEFINITION: Vector representing the actual path the
      aircraft will follow over the ground taking into
      account wind.
      Defined by 2 parameters:
              • TT = Actual path the aircraft follows
                     over the ground.
              • GS = Relative speed of the aircraft
                     and the ground
DEFINITION: Vector representing the actual wind
      conditions.
      Must take into account winds aloft are usually
      given as true and METAR / TAFOR are in
      magnetic.

            • W = Direction where the wind COMES FROM
                   (Magnetic,true or compass)
            • V = Wind intensity (Velocity)
DEFINITION: Mesurement of the amount of degrees
     the wind is pushing the aircraft on the direction
     opposite to the one it is coming from.
     Angle between the Heading and the Track
DEFINITION: Angle and sense from the Track to the
      Heading. Angle you have to change the rhumb of
      the aircraft to keep it on the desired track
      Equal amount and opposite to the Drift Angle
OBJECTIVE: Whenever you’ve already calculated your
     triangle and for any reason wind changes, there’s
     no need to create a new one. Instead you can
     revise it.
DEFINITION: Difference between the directionof the
       desired track (DT) and the direction of the track
       actualy flown (Track Made Good = TMG).
       Given in degrees left or right.

NOTE: Another way of describing it is by stating how many nm your
      position is left or right of the desired track
Whenever you realise you’ve lot your way and
    need to regain your track to reach a
    certaing point
