You must allow in addition to the normal lead-out of turn a number of degrees approximately equal to your latitude.If your normal lead-out of turn is 5 Degrees DEG. and you are turning from 135 Degrees to 180 Degrees magnetic latitude 20 DegreesS; at which compass heading will you start rollout of turn?

    • A.

      208 Degrees [C]

    • B.

      175 Degrees [C]

    • C.

      155 Degrees [C]
