B is for... BEARING | Stop getting lost! ✈️ Master Navigation in MSFS
Never get lost again in Microsoft Flight Simulator! Today we dive into Bearing, the essential measurement that tells you exactly where you are headed—and where you need to be. Whether you are navigating via a VOR needle or the G1000, understanding the difference between True, Magnetic, and Relative bearing is the secret to professional-grade flight planning.
In the second episode of our Microsoft Flight Simulator Alphabet series, we break down the "Three Types" of bearing. We’ll explain why "North" isn't always North, show you the effect on the instruments when close to the North pole, and show you how you can calculate certain types of bearings..
This is essential navigation training for any aspiring pilot looking to move beyond the "magenta line."
