Study Notes

VOR Check Essentials

Pilots must remember SLED during a VOR check: Signature, Location, Error Amount, and Date.
There are multiple types of VOR checks to ensure system accuracy: VOT (VOR Test Facility), Ground Check, Airborne Check, and Dual VOR Check.

VOR Check Tolerances

A VOT Check allows for a tolerance of +/- 4 Degrees, ensuring navigational precision.
Ground Checks also have a tolerance of +/- 4 Degrees, similar to VOT Checks.
Airborne Checks have a wider tolerance limit of +/- 6 Degrees, accommodating flight conditions.
In a Dual VOR Check, a permissible difference of 4 Degrees is noted between the two VOR systems to ensure reliability.
