As a student pilot in the Air Force, I was on my instrument check ride in the T-37, a small twin engine jet with side by side seating. I had a hood on that obstructed my exterior vision. My instructor told me to proceed to a particular airport. I looked up the information, dialed in the frequency and set up my VOR to fly to the destination (just as illustrated in the video). As I overflew the airport (a From indication on the VOR) the instructor told me to remove the hood and look out. I had overflown the wrong airport. What happened? There were two different airports a few miles apart. The VOR frequencies were one click of the dial different. I had mis-dialed the frequency when setting up. What had I failed to do? The rule is “tune and identify”, and you identify by listening to the airport Morse Code identifier. So that’s why the military teaches Morse Code to pilots. An age-old system in modern airplanes. I failed the check ride and passed the re-check. And learned a lesson that it’s the little things that can bite you.
Finally, a correct explanation with correct terminology.
Feel free to check out our site for more info! fly8ma.com
My thoughts exactly getting tired of those other self appointed experts not even knowing that it's called a CDI
I have struggled getting my head around VOR navigation, I have watched hour after hour of UA-cam videos of people supposedly explaining how easy it is, within 5 minutes of watching your video, it became clear in a way that not one of the other "Pilots" were able to communicate. Thank you for this excellent and UNDERSTANDABLE explanation of VOR navigation, you accomplished in 5 minutes what others could not do in 5 hours!
Really glad to hear it all helps out! Thanks for watching and be sure to share our new site with your friends on Facebook and around the airport! www.fly8ma.com/
Very helpful but enough with the 'go ahead' every second breath please!!!!
I second that. This is the most useful explanation of vors I've come across. Thank you for putting this together
This was the best VOR video I have seen also, there are some out there that claim they have the "easiest" way to learn VOR, all they do is confuse you.
preplaned comments
It’s crazy to be struggling with something one minute and have it all make prefect sense the next. There’s nothing like the feeling of that “click” in your brain when you finally understand something you’ve struggled with for so long. Thanks bro.
Your VOR navigation explanation is excellent and UNDERSTANDABLE, it makes my study a lot easier, Thank you!
Thanks! Check out videos on www.fly8ma.com
This is by far the best VOR video I have seen on UA-cam. Thank you so much for explaining this concept so well.
You nailed it at explaining To and From functions! I wish I found your vid 3 hours ago. Thank you !
Single most useful VOR explanation I've ever seen. THANK YOU
Terrific graphs that create an image in your mind's eye for what needs to happen to get a VOR heading. Very helpful video. Well done.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Really great tutorial. Not a real pilot myself but very useful for learning to fly using VOR navigation in flight simulator.
By far this is the best VOR instruction I have found. Finally makes sense to me.
This is the best explain of VOR I found so far. Thank you!
You make this pretty easy to understand. Several others have tried covering this topic, but yours is the best IMHO.
Like many others here have commented, I was struggling wrapping my head around VOR navigation. Watching training videos and reading up on the subject helped give me a basic understanding but this short, extremely well done video really helped me get where I need to be. Thanks so much! I’m excited to go back through the other content you have posted and future content coming out!
I gotta rinse and repeat this to get that muscle memory. Thanks!
You have an excellent teaching technique that makes it very easy to follow what you are doing and saying. Great Job!!
I stumbled upon your videos the other day as I prep for my check ride. I just wanted to say, your videos are amazingly well explained, and easy to understand. I absolutely did not understand VOR naviation at all prior to this video. Now I understand it no problem. You got a subscribe to me. It's also nice that you use references I am used to since I fly out of Fort Myers. Thanks again!
I spend the whole day going through all presentations, I didn't get anything.. 20 min vid. it's Crystal CLEAR ... Brilliant
By far the best explanation of simple VOR use in the plane. Crystal clear.
This video will help me to understand about VOR, I will watch it over and over and then try it on my flight simluator. Thank you for sharing it.Have a save flight everyone.
Thanks Jon. This vid is one of the best VOR instruction vids on UA-cam.
I'm happy to hear it helped ya!
It took me a few replays to get the idea of positive and negative sensing but it was worth it. Thanks for a beautifully explained lesson on VOR nav.
Thank you for this video. SUPER helpful and you really explain it well!
My first VOR lesson tomorrow, thanks for this video! :)
Fantastic explanation about VOR navigation. Love it.
Great explaination! Thankyou
You made it very simple and easy to understand. Thank you for that (y)
thanks guys! I finally understood how the VOR works!great job!
Glad it helps! Be sure to share us with your friends on FaceBook and around the airport!
Thank you! I was confused on the to and from radials but you explained it right and now I understand. Thanks again.
I'm glad it helped!
From means that the radio waves are hitting you. To means that you are going towards it.
Thanks for this great tutorial, certainly going to help with my VOR training.
Glad it helps! Safe Flying!
Thank you I finally get now, I've been finding how to use vor and the vids I found was hard but yours was easy so thank you
Glad you found this helpful Mart!! If you're interested in some more courses check out our website where we have more awesome articles and videos! www.fly8ma.com
Thanks for putting these videos up, really helps with IFR!
Glad it helps! Be sure to share us with your friends on FaceBook and around the airport!
very clearly explained!! thanks!!!
Great explanation! I continually struggle with this.
well done,!! your graphics work great to assist in understanding
this is great. my instructor told me something like radial is to and bearing is from VOR... this video really helped. i'm going to to use x-plane to practice it, so I'm ready for the check ride and cross countries.
You Are Awesome my friend. Thanks to you, I will now get my instrument rating...
Awesome video and very well explained!! Thank you
This is totally EXCELLENT. Thanks!
Great presentation!
Good job 👍! I used a VOR in a long time and this is a really great refresher. Thanks 🙏
I'm glad it helped ya!
So far the best explanation I’ve found on UA-cam! Thanks for the video bud
I appreciate that!
Thank you Jon!
bearing to the station and radial from the station
Dude! I'm dyslexic and you just saved me from years of head banging at 14:00 on this vid.!
THANK YOU!
Rod Machado's got nuttin' on ya.. ;) (Y)
haha, Thanks! Glad it helps!
Josh - thank you for the excellent tutorial. I learned so much in this 20 minutes. I went on my discovery flight last week and this was the most perplexing aspect of my flight. I still have lots to learn but you gave me confidence I can acquire the necessary skills with vor to aide me in my journey. You guys are very much appreciated !!
Congrats on the discovery flight! Good luck with training and check out some of our other playlists to help you through getting your license!
it was good explanation the best teaching method first i was confused but then at last when you repeat it it was clear thanks!!!
AMAZING EXPLANATION!! THANKS A LOOOTTTTTTT.
This is really good for someone who's extremely confused from watching hours of other videos! Are all your other IFR training videos like this? I'd like to join
This information is so excellent, thank you, and as has been pointed out, the VOR stations are in the process of being turned off with it sounds like only 39 to remain across America by 2020. GPS is changing how we do things and I think the reliability of the system has proved itself for enough years. No doubt it will completely simplify how people fly, speak the flight plan and the plane will go that way... a lot more people might get into flying if it were easier to navigate.
It’s so obvious when it finally clicks
Excellent explanation! Simple
Awesome thanks great video
WOW, excellent explanation, I finally understand VOR. THANKS
Glad it helped!
You do an excellent job with making a difficult subject understandable, simple and effective.
Much appreciated!
Did this today....but also had to determine a checkpoint using the intersection of two VOR's. Do you have a video on that?
Excellent presentation...clear and well expressed. Thanks
Happy that it helped!
Thank you so much for this amazing explanation. I watched several videos before I got to this one. I started flying in Flight Sim 2020 and they dont explain the VOR hardly at all, so I had to go searching how to use it. Your video made me understand how to use it in 20 minutes where others spent hours only to confuse me more. I am curious, what program are you using right there, is it available to the public for practice as well?
Really good explanation. I think I’ve got it then fail to get the Cessna autopilot in X-Plane to fly the right way. I think it’s a subtlety of also needing to set the HDG bug as well as using using the CDI to control the AP. Will keep trying.
I was totally able to follow along with your tutorial! My 19 y/o son is completing his PPL soon and I'm trying to understand some concepts before I fly with him in a few weeks. I don't want to be completely useless in the right seat :-)
Why not just let em have a good thing, why do you have to try and act like you know planes, let alone VOR usage😂 Just gonna get em lost
Great tutorial!!
Thanks very much for this!
Glad it helps! Fly safe out there and share our site with your aviation friends!
Great video Positive sensing and Negative sensing great explanation.
Thanks Fred, I'm glad it helped!
THANK YOU!
Thank you!!!
Excellent tutorial.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I was completely lost when my instructor explained it to me today but with your video, it made so much more sense!
I'm glad it helped!! Good luck!
Very Thank"s you.-
thanks thanks really helped me
Finally got it it . This is after using Embry and Riddle materials.
Thanks for this video
Thank you!
this is the best vor nav Ive seen thanks...
Happy to help!!
Very clear explanation. Thanks!
Glad it helps! Share us with your friends on facebook and around the airport! Check out the new site at www.fly8ma.com !
Really thanks so much
Your videos are great! Quick question, which software did you use for this one? It would be great to play with it for training. Thanks!
I love you 😭😭❤️ thanks so much
I'm glad it helped!!
Good Review .... Thanks
Glad it helps! Hope to see ya out there flying! -Jon
nice video, thank you :P
Very very nicely taught!!
I'm glad it helped!!
Love your videos so much. You have the best presentation and speaking voice. Could you please do a video related to the AGI test. I’m still a student pilot but getting ready for my AGI/FOI so I can make some extra money! Thanks sooo much and keep up the awesome work!
The CFI / FOI / AGI course will be launching this summer on the site! Keep an eye out!
Nice tutorial
Nice, good tutorial.
Glad it helps! Fly Safe!
VOR = Very Old man's Radio range.
Even with the advent and implementation of high zoot glass in the airliners, a lot of us still used the ND single and double needles enroute to keep our RMI and ADF chops up. Old school stuff, but a skill we were glad to have kept up. "Well, I just use PROG page three to let me know where I am." Okay... so where are you? Lost or confused? As for me, both.
Thank you sir I finally understood how to fly like that 10/10
Always happy to help!
Incredibly helpful!! Thank you for providing these videos!
Great video !!!
Thanks! Glad it helps!
Hi, great video, what app do you use?
👍 Thanks guy
Very good!
Feel free to share it around a bit!
thx for the video. what software you used for the demonstration?
Was about to ask that. I wanna know, too.
Looks similar in graphics to stuff skytest uses. EXCEPT it actually feels like a mini simulator.
What simulator are r u using and how are you getting the VOR sound?
thank you so much. that was very detailed and clear. the dislikes dont make sense to me!!
hi,being a beginner, what do you do to land when you hit the station ? does the needle go crazy when you're right on it? will look for your previous lesson on vor maybe to get the basics,thanks for helping us.i just put thumbs up and subscribed.
Check out some of our other VOR videos! Its all explained on there! Good luck and have fun with your training!!
What app are you using for the simulation?
Great video
Thanks!!
Scrolled through the comments a bit and couldn’t find any info, what tool is this?? It would be great to practice vor theory with whatever is being used in the video
Do you have ground school for IR?
What software are you using in this video? I apologize if someone has already asked this. I would VERY much like to use this software to continue studying certain practices, like flying VOR.

Hell yeah, dude. This is awesome! Thank you for pointing it out. I can practice some basic VOR stuff hen I'm at work, now.
I am a little confused, in 8:30 the needle seems to be to the left at this time and it is stated " as the needle is to our left we will go left to get to the station and as the needle is to our right we will go right to get to the station" then we proceeded to go right when the needle was pointing to the left... would you be able to help me understand what I am missing in this concept? thank you so much! I am enjoying the detail you are putting into this.
