Your task
Use the ADF pointer to track toward a fictional NDB while observing the effect of wind on the flight path.
Keep in mind
A needle on the nose does not necessarily mean a straight ground track when wind is present.
Technique & worked examples
Heading plus relative bearing gives magnetic bearing TO the station. Compare homing with maintaining a chosen inbound track.
Session format & results
Simplified ADF indications and flight dynamics. This exercise omits real signal errors and does not qualify a pilot for operational navigation.
Review the debrief before repeating. Compare attempts using the same device and settings. Local results are practice measurements, not official scores or predictions of selection.
Controls, fullscreen & privacy
Use on-screen controls or the keyboard shortcuts shown in the exercise. Full screen is available after starting and expands only the exercise; devices without browser fullscreen use focus mode. Finishing or leaving returns you to the site.
No account or score upload. Session history is optional and stays on your device. Interview notes and individual personality responses are not saved in that history.
