Bearings: Fixing Position Trainee pilots have to to learn to cope when the unexpected happens. If their navigation equipment fails they can quickly find their position by calling controllers at two different airfields for a bearing. The two bearings will tell the pilot where he is. The initial call on the controllers radio frequency will trigger a line on the radar screen showing the bearing of the calling aircraft. Airfield (A) 283.2 MHZ UHF Airfield (B) 306.7 MHZ UHF 050o 300o Thankyou
