Obviously,
all these area charts have magnetic north as datum, so the answer is 080° (M) /
4.2 NM. But, in the case of Esbjerg (EKEB), the magnetic variation is zero, so
theoretically, the answer 080° (T) / 4.2 NM should be correct as well. Is this
correct?
You
are correct of course ..... the
point is, on the left side of the chart it gives you the information ....
4.2/080 ... the bearings are always given in MAG .... hence the answer. Whoever wrote the question did not notice
0 Variation!!!
This
question actually comes up quite regularly .... I will put it on the list of
'Questions to appeal'.
