BDHI
Recall in chapter 2 the information provided by the BDHI (Figure 4.6-11). A majority of an
aircrew's navigation information will come from this instrument and will be the only type of
electronic navigation available to the student aviator during the majority of training. It is
imperative that the aircrew is able to build a picture, or an awareness, of where they are in
flight using this instrument. In this course, only information provided by the #2 needle
(thicker/double needle) will be covered. This will primarily be TACAN navigation.
