Airienteering with 13MIKE

by Fred J. Calfior and Douglas W. Miller

1) When “8.0” DME from JFK VOR, turn towards “JONES BEACH MONUMENT”

“On April 7, 1945, a Japanese task force of one light cruiser, eight destroyers, and the world's biggest battleship, Yamato, was spotted by United States submarines off the Bungo Strait. A force of 380 dive bombers and torpedo bombers was launched from Task Force 58 at 10:00 AM while the Japanese warships were 250 miles away. Fighting for its life, the 71,000 ton Yamato had 146 25 millimeter antiaircraft guns. By 2:25 PM, it had been sunk with the loss of 3,063 lives. Only 4 destroyers survived.”

2) When crossing the JFK VOR “106” radial, press “P” to pause the simulation

Record your:

DME from JFK VOR___________________(50 pts)

Radial from LGA VOR__________________(40 pts)

Heading____________________________ (30 pts)

DME from LGA VOR__________________ (20 pts)

DME from DPK VOR__________________ (20 pts)

3) Press “P” to continue the simulation

4) There is a JFK VOR radial that separates a 3000 foot Kennedy Class B airspace floor from a 4000 foot Kennedy Class B airspace floor. Go to that AirLeg.
