Abstract

This paper describes an experimental model of a course-line computer which accepts bearing information from a vhf omnirange receiver and distance information from distance-measuring equipment and converts it to simple tack-guidance directions for the pilot of an aircraft. Results of flight tests over eight parallel tracks are presented in map form. Theoretical relations between computer errors and errors in the bearing and distance information are also presented.
