NOTE

DME (Distance Measuring Equipment) is a term signifying an

electronic fix measured in nautical miles from a navigation aid

(VORTAC or TACAN) on the specified radial.

A pilot is planning an IFR flight from Bates Field (MOB) to NAS Pensacola (NPA). Route of

flight is direct Brookley VORTAC (BFM), V198 to Bratt Intersection, direct to the IAF for the

TACAN RWY 7R instrument approach at NAS Pensacola (IAF located at the 14_mile DME fix

on the 205 radial of NPA). When the IAF has a five-letter name, either the name or the

NAVAID identifier/radial/DME combination may be used. The proper entries in the ROUTE

OF FLIGHT section of the DD 175 are as follows:
