Aircraft Heading = 040°M

Relative Bearing = 030°

HDG + RB = QDM

040°M + 030° = 070°M

Magnetic Variation = 8° W (Applied at aircraft, for NDB and Airborne Weather Radar plots)

Variation West = Magnetic Best or -8° using sign convention

 

C D M V T

 

070°M -8° 062°T

This is the QUJ (True Bearing TO the headland).

To plot the QTE (Aircraft position FROM the headland) add 180° to find the reciprocal.

062°T + 180° = 242°T

Plot a 80NM line from the headland on this bearing and you should find it lands smack at N 49° 25' W 007° 30'.
