Part 107 Test Prep: Latitude and Longitude on Sectional Charts

[@GordonSecurity]

Olga, Thank you so much; your video is the most clear understanding explanation ever in the aviation world!!!

[@sethenglish3657]

This is by far the most helpful video on the subject. Thank you so much.

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Thank you! Good luck with your studying :)

[@rexiser9994]

Thank you so much for this video! I was struggling to understand how to read sectional charts until I came across this video. Thanks to you once I finally understood how to go about it because of this video and today I passed my test on the first try, 88%! Thank you!!

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Congrats!! Happy to have helped out! :)

[@mike_marun]

I was completely confused on how to read latitude and longitude in every other video I watched, but this made things SO clear. Thanks a bunch!

[@flhandster4395]

Once again, BAM. just what I needed to clear up the mud on this subject matter. Thank you again for your time and detailed explanation. Much appreciated. 😎🙏

[@Justin_McElhannon]

I’ve been studying for this test and your videos are an absolute game changer! Thank you!

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Great to hear! Best of luck studying :)

[@lucasundurraga-tate5341]

This was extremely useful. Really helped my grasp the whole concept in such a short amount of time. Thank you so much!

[@pilotliz]

Thank you Olga! I couldn’t figure this out to save my life and finally understand!!!!

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

You're welcome! Good luck with the rest of your studying :)

Hi Olga. I passed my part 107 with an 88 thanks to this video. I needed a bit more clarity on reading the sectionals. I would encourage others to watch as many videos as possible and study for a couple of weeks at least. I also paid for a class on Udemy to help out. Thank you!

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Congrats! Best of luck with any future drone-related endeavors!

[@LewseeAhh]

thank you, your doodles helped. I'm gonna watch your entire playlist to help me study for the part 107 :)

[@Yippikiyeah]

This is the best explanation yet. I am so grateful I found you. Thank you. I take my test 1/17/2025. Friday😮

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Happy to hear it! Good luck :)

[@johnjohnson9961]

Look at the answers to find the Airport. Why didn't I think of that. :-) I looked all over the map for that tiny airport. Great tip.

[@tjdoyle2556]

Thank you! This stuff is finally making sense to me now. I really appreciate the follow up question because I was able to find it for myself.

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Happy to hear it! Good luck with the rest of your studying :)

[@dennyross5602]

This video really really really hit the spot actually! I’m surprised but you got that magic. I solved my first ever lat long question too! Thx muchos

[@ATwoTime]

Thank you, my friends would always joke about just praying these questions don't show up on the PPL written because no one in our friend group knew how to do these type of questions

[@Yippikiyeah]

Thanks!

Thank you! :)

[@AJHodgeman]

WOW. This helped me understand so much better! Thank you for this.

Olga, thank you so much! I passed the exam! 😇

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

I'm so happy to hear! :)

[@Oxyballids]

Great video thanks. It really helped me fill in the gaps I had finding latatutde & longitude locations. However, I am trying to answer the practice question on my own. However, I don't see the link to the map I need anywhere in the description like you say you posted it & unfortunately, the chart in the actual video I cannot use as I cannot manipulate it to the areas I need to see in order to solve the question. Can you please help and post the link to the image? Thanks.

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Hello! Happy to have helped out :) Here is the chart for the first question: images.app.goo.gl/NttdtLCMnXmVr3G57 And here is the chart for the second question: images.app.goo.gl/QGkt2H9XnDgDLzmJ9

[@jovanlarry1710]

Thank you for this video!!!

[@victorcohen6746]

These are tremendously helpful videos, thank you for posting them. Do you have any plans for creating IFR training videos?

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Cheers! Unfortunately at this moment, I don't have any plans to create IFR training videos :(

[@heybondy]

Super helpful, Thank you!

[@Advanceauto999]

What are those 09 , 07 blue signs

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Great question! Those are the Maximum Elevation Figures, or MEFs. The MEF is the lowest altitude you can fly and still be assured to clear every obstacle within that quadrant. Check out this wiki page (under the "United States" section) for more information on how it's calculated: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_elevation_figure

Thank you Olga!

[@robertvanscoy16]

Well that's cool but have a good question, what if the question has 3 set's of numbers like 47° 34' 30" N Latitude and 100° 44' 00" longitude , so what is the 30" and 00"

[@Interloper783]

Thanks, this was helpful!

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Glad it was helpful! Good luck with your studying :)

[@curtismorgan4389]

Thank you so much for the video. This has been a great aid as I study for Part 107 exam. Question # 2 was 47 40 but the answer you gave was for 47 20. Am I not understanding something?

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Glad this video is helping you out! :) Since all the sectional charts will be in North America, we can assume that moving south will decrease the latitude. In order to get to 47 degrees 40 minutes, we want to subtract 20 minutes from the 48 degree line, and we do that by moving south by 20 minutes. Does that help you out?

[@fpoa]

Great vid! I was so confused and thought 36 deg 30 min is 37 degrees

[@kevinriemer6913]

I don’t understand where you got the 47 from when you started on the 48… Wouldn’t it be 48 and 40 minutes south?

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Hello! Remember that since the FAA will only be showing maps from the Northern Hemisphere, latitude will increase going north and decrease going south. This means the equator is 0 degrees latitude and the north pole is 90 degrees latitude. I started at the 48 since I knew that would be a good reference point to find where 47 degrees and 40 minutes was on the map. If we had started at 47 degrees, we would have had to count out 40 minutes north of that, as opposed to starting at 48 degrees and counting south 20 minutes. 48 degrees and 40 minutes would be 40 minutes north of the 48 degree line of latitude.

[@kevinriemer6913]

@@OlgaAndreevaVideos thank you… so as soon as you went below 48, it became 47 and then whatever minutes it ended up being to find the airport… I have to get the hang of the longitude and latitude… I love the way you explain everything with your hand written notes… Thanks again

[@OlgaAndreevaVideos]

Yep, exactly! Good luck with your studying :)

[@Gru692]

Seriously we’ll explained …. Thank you

Thank you! I used to be a teaching assistant in college, but now I just make these videos when I have time :)

[@WackFPV]

Ooooohhh, you subtract cuz you're going down towards the equator... THANK YOU!!!

[@Lookin4Things]

Maybe Im seeing 40 minutes from 47 and you kept saying 20? And then crossed at 20 rather than 40 like the question says???? Mercer was my answer

[@Lookin4Things]

@luxurycommerciale mercer it was. Sill confusing. I passed with 89. You must study because there were several trick questions. Use up the entire 2 hours and the faster you answer the questions AI will make the questions more difficult.

[@Feat_Forward_Jake]

Nope - you guys confused the heck out of me for a second. YES, She's saying 20' SOUTH of 48⁰. Since 48⁰ is essentially 47⁰60'..(I know, it doesn't exist, just trying to oversimplify).... to get to 47⁰40' you need to SUBTRACT 20' from 48⁰ or, (for point of explanation) SUBTRACT 20' from 47⁰60' What do you get? 46⁰40' She kept saying 20 minutes and crossed at 20 minutes because that was the SUBTRACTION amount FROM 48⁰ Again, giving you 47⁰40' I don't know what you saw in your test... if it was the exact question. If you received a checklist of wrong and correct answers from your test, but either you or the test was wrong. In this SPECIFIC example. She is 100% correct.

[@Lookin4Things]

@@Feat_Forward_Jake yes she had the correct answer that was on the same on test

[@Feat_Forward_Jake]

See, now I'm REALLY confused... Your comment says "mercer it was"... However she said.. ' Garrison' ... Which would be the correct answer... 🤔

[@Lookin4Things]

@Feat_Forward_Jake If you have time, get the ASA questions AND!! answer book that actually goes with the study guide provided by the psi testing site. That ASA book was the guide that helped me the most, why in the heck wouldn't people be advising that is beyond me other than to make money by not mentioning it. Pilot Institute barely mentioned it.
