So I got all of the questions correct but that's because I'm good with memorizing things. Isogonal still doesn't make sense to me.... but I know the definition. In fact, in general I'd love more visual examples of how to apply these concepts to navigation. As in, maybe animations showing what these terms look like in real life or on a map.

i have a question based on the identifying positions of lat and long. On position B the position would be N80'00'00'' - But for the longitude its on the prime meridian. So how would you explain the positioning since its not on east or west? thanks
Hi Robert, if you happen to be tiptoeing on the knife edge that is the prime meridian with 000's for min's and sec's hen you wouldn't identify East or West...as it would be all 0000's but the moment you vary from 000's i will then become East or West.... hope that helps.
The methods used for air nav and flight planning is generally the same all over the world, hence international pilots, talk to your CFI for things unique to your country.
Hi Tom, thanks for the question. An easy way to explain this is the following... We know the sun is static. We also know that the sun rises in the East and sets in the west. In order for this to happen, the Earth would have to rotate anticlockwise and looking from the equator, move from West to East to facilitate that. Does that answer your question?
