FAA Ground School Practice Test

To determine the aircraft's location based on the VOR radials, it's important to understand what the terms mean. The 320° radial from Savannah VORTAC indicates a line that runs outward from the VOR navigation aid at an angle of 320° relative to true north. Conversely, the 184° radial from Allendale VOR indicates a line extending outward at an angle of 184° from that VOR.

By using both radials together, you can visualize the area where these lines intersect. The VOR radials indicate where the aircraft is regarding the respective VOR stations. In this case, being on the 320° radial from Savannah and 184° radial from Allendale means that you can draw the respective bearings on a navigation chart and find the point where the two lines converge.

Given that Savannah is located to the northeast of Guyton and Allendale is to the southwest, the intersection of these radials places the aircraft southwest of Guyton, as it is closer to the 184° radial that points toward the south and the 320° radial leading you out in a westerly direction. The location is confirmed by understanding the geography and the implications of the radials with respect to nearby points, which emphasizes
