Pilots should follow these guidelines while changing airports due to an emergency

rely on radio as your major navigational tool.

Use estimates, rule-of-thumb calculations, and other suitable shortcuts to quickly change to the new course.

Ascent to a greater altitude to make it simpler to spot checkpoints.

Correct! Wrong!

A meridian close to the midpoint of the course should be used to make accurate course measurements on a sectional aeronautical chart since the

Angles created by the course line and longitude lines differ from point to point.

Isogonic lines have values that vary from point to point.

Angles formed by isogonic lines and lines of latitude vary from point to point.

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
Because the angles created by lines of longitude and the course line change from point to point, measurements should be taken close to the course's midpoint. Isogonic lines are used to determine magnetic course and are not utilized to calculate real course, hence answers B and C are incorrect.

Please see Figure 44. In relation to the impediment 7 SM west of McKinney Airport, choose the appropriate answer (area 5).

The elevation of the top of the obstruction is 729 feet AGL.

The obstruction is unlighted.

The obstruction has high-intensity lights.

Correct! Wrong!
