This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Fan lines and correction angle.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
Summary
DescriptionFan lines and correction angle.png
English: Fan lines, track error and approximate correction angle.
For example, if the aircraft is 10 degrees off course after travelling 2/3 of the leg, the correction angle is "approximately" 25 degrees (10X2.5). Therefore the pilot should change the heading 25 degrees towards the destination (B).
This method could be used in conjunction with 1 in 60 rule.
