What is the V417 general path description?

• A. NE from Natchez through Magnolia to Bigbe
• B. Bows South below V18 (alt airway) between Monroe, Magnolia, and Meridian
• C. Extending NW from Magnolia up to Greenville
• D. East-West through Monroe, Magnolia, and Meridian

Answer: (B)

Victor airways are the low‑altitude routes defined by VOR navigation, and a route’s general path is described relative to fixes and other airways on the chart. For V417, the depiction is that the route curves southward, forming a bow, and it lies below the V18 airway in the area between the Monroe, Magnolia, and Meridian VORs. This describes the actual corridor and alignment you’d follow on the IFR low‑enroute chart between those fixes. The other options imply different directions or connections that don’t match how V417 runs through that region, so the southward bow below V18 between Monroe, Magnolia, and Meridian is the correct description.
