You WILL Understand VORs after Watching This! (PPL Lesson 37)

wow. i was sceptical of the title of this video. You will REALY understand VOR's after watching this. Thank you!!!

VOR saved my bacon on my private cross country in 1975. I was not listening or it just didn’t sink in when the flight weather station briefer told me my destination airport was two miles visibility with fog. That was the second leg on the trip. I blissfully took off and when I got near my destination I couldn’t find the airport cause of the fog. I took radials off of two VORs and when they crossed figured out where I was and where the airport was. Finally found it.

Wow! You just cleared up my understanding of bearing in the first 10 seconds of the video!

During my flight training days, my instructor had me verify that I tuned to the proper VOR by listening to the audio Morse Code identifier and then matching the sound to the printed Morse Code elements on the chart. I told her that I confirmed it by ear already. She didn't believe me. I then informed her that I held an Amateur Extra Class Ham Radio license from the 80s, whereby I was required to demonstrate my ability to receive Morse Code at 20 WPM by ear and that I had my Ham license in my pocket if she needed proof. She just said "Oh...ok, then." Hehehe.

This was a fantastic lesson. I really liked how you put the audience “in the cockpit .” I never really understood VORs that well until now.

Thank you! My instructor told me it was his first time seeing a student learning VOR that fast! The best VOR video!!!

Thank you so much for this! In just a few minutes you turned this in to a VERY digestible concept!

Wow, I feel much more educated about VOR's now. I really struggled to understand them completely in one of the online schools, this is done VERY well! Thank you!

Ive wondered about these VORs for a while, and you taught it perfectly as I already have nav training from the military, this was very easy to understand in under 15 min.

Getting back to flying after about 25 years. Most of my ground school was 50 years ago. These videos are a nice little refresher.

You're helping me get through school Bubba. Thank you for your service both in and outside the military.

Thank you very much for posting this video, It really helped me. I'm a student pilot from Poland currently doing PPL license and your videos combined with few others are a great source of aviation knowledge and by this video I can say I've learned how to use VOR's thanks again.

Absolute best pilot instructional videos on the internet. Nailed it again. Thank you.

Dude I literally had never heard of a VOR before clicking on this video but you made me understand what it is and how to follow a course. Genuinely well done!

ive seen 10000 videos about VOR and never understood about the needle positioning… thank you for finally making me understand!!

Excellent tutorial! Great to see actual cabin footage along with the diagrams and charts. I've subscribed!

Truly the best learning out there. You have no idea how helpful this is, thank you!

Thank you very much for making training videos. They are succinct, engaging, and provide clarity over questions I have after reading the PHAK and other resources. This is a great video on VORs and navigation!

I don't fly any longer but will have to say that using single and double VORs was xplained about the simplest I think have ever heard it explained ! Great job! Keep up the excellent videos coming!

This is literally the best I have EVER heard this explained! Thanks so much man!
