....everybody has a small calc for the cockit, right? Can somebody try their "way" to check this?

Thanks!

Yeah your way checks out. Did it for 10 NM and 10 Radials, you way came up with 1.74 NM, my way came up with 10000 Feet which equals about 1.7 NM, so it checks

i am thinking that i probably wont have a calculator in the interview...so why not just take 2% OR just move the decimal 2 places after you calculate DME * Radials...

hey it is close and isnt that what a ROT is all about...ha.ha.
