During ATPL stage, you do need to learn navigate your course. The term of "navigation" is the management or direct the course of your aircraft by using maps and instruments. It ain't easy as you thought. Accuracy and precision stand important part in the plotting. Therefore, extra cares applied when plotting. Instruments are needed for plotting as like divider,compass, ruler, scientific calculator and of course, CRP-5 computer . Along the course, forecasting is important as well. we do need to forecast the advance, the next path, heading and of course the weather. With the bearing from the radio station, we can fix the aircraft's position. This is giving us the direction and reduce the workload. The radio stations such as VOR, NDB, DME, TACAN and lots more are important in navigation. Besides that, speed and distance are important factor as well. Only if you state the speed and distance accurately, you will be able to arrive the destination @ the exact ETA ( estimated time of arrival ). That's why when u're flying to somewhere, the duration of the flight is always accurate, exception for weather factor. Weather is harmful to the flyers. We must dodge from it for safety purpose. Hence, meteorological reports are needed during pre-flight plan so that you will be able to forecast the next happening and plan the alternate option. Appropriate reports are needed for different purpose because there are quite a lot of MET reports such as METAR , TAF and SIGMET as well. Different report has its purpose. Therefore, decision making is important during flight plan.

In the path of life, we have to navigate our course, direction to where we wanna go, what we wana achieve. In the process, we need guidance in order to achieve our dream. Perhaps, friends, family, something or even incidents that have happened to you could change your preception or guide you to the destination. With these, you could plan your path, the direction of where you wana go. Please remember, always forecast your future with the presence of weather. There is always unexpected things or incidents which can smash you off or even ruin your path. This is what we call as weather. As a good navigator, we have to think of the weather always and elude from it. So, always ask yourself , " what if...... " .
Navigate the course, forecast the weather.
