Match each aeronautical Q-code to its corresponding bearing definition: Q-Codes: 1. QDM 2. QDR 3. QTE 4. QUJ Definitions: A. Magnetic bearing from aircraft to station B. Magnetic bearing from station to aircraft C. True bearing from station to aircraft D. True bearing from aircraft to station

Answer

1-A, 2-B, 3-C, 4-D

Explanation

The codes distinguish the bearing's north reference and whether it points from the station or toward it. QDR and QTE are station-to-aircraft bearings; QDM and QUJ point from aircraft to station. Reciprocal directions differ by 180°. **Key takeaway:** Check both the reference north and bearing origin. **Glossary:** **Reciprocal**: direction 180° opposite another direction.
