Halbkreisregel

• Richtung OST = ungerade Flughöhen 3500, 5500, 7500 m (3 Buchstaben)
• Richtung WEST = gerade Flughöhen 4500, 6500 usw. (4 Buchstaben)

Magnetic Heading

TH (True Heading) addieren oder subtrahieren??

• WEST is BEST --> addieren
• EAST is LEAST --> subtrahieren

TH : 015°
VAR : 2° East
MH (Magnetic heading) = 015° - 002° = 013°
