The radial path GCV to MHZ129 connects Greene County VORTAC to which VOR?

The radial path GCV to MHZ129 connects Greene County VORTAC to which VOR?

• A. MHZ VOR
• B. HEZ VOR-DME
• C. GCV VORTAC
• D. HLI VORTAC

Answer: (A)

Radials are lines that extend from a VOR and are named after the VOR they come from. If you see a path described as GCV to MHZ129, it means you’re traveling along the line defined by the MHZ VOR’s 129-degree radial and that line intersects the Greene County VORTAC. The destination, therefore, is the MHZ VOR itself, since the 129-degree radial is a line from MHZ. The other options don’t fit because they’re different navaids (HEZ VOR-DME, GCV VORTAC is the starting point, or HLI VORTAC) and aren’t the end point of this particular radial line.
