🔍 Key Concepts

• Start at the 0620 fix established in step 5 and plot the direct true course to the arrival point 0.3 nm due north of Y “NCA.” • Because the question says to disregard current and leeway, distinguish the plotted course to make good from the earlier steering course corrected for those effects. • Convert the charted true direction to the requested compass reference using the stated gyro error or, if considering a standard magnetic compass choice, variation and deviation from the illustration.

💭 Think About

• What true direction connects the 0620 fix to the point 0.3 nm north of Y “NCA”? • Which answer choices are gyro courses and which are standard magnetic courses, and what corrections apply to each reference? • For a standard magnetic compass option, how do the 10°W variation and the deviation table near that heading combine?

✅ Before You Answer

• Use the 0620 observed position from step 5, not the earlier 0540 position or dead-reckoned track. • Do not apply leeway or set and drift, as the question explicitly excludes them. • Check correction signs carefully: the illustration gives deviation by magnetic heading, while the gyro error is 2°W.
