What are the airways that KJVW is inbetween?

• A. V245 - V557
• B. V9 - V11
• C. V555 - V11
• D. V557 - V9

Answer: (A)

Victor airways are the low-altitude IFR routes that run along centerlines defined by VORs, extending roughly 8 nautical miles on either side. An airport can lie between two airways if its location sits in the corridor between their centerlines rather than exactly on one airway’s path. To know which airways bound a position, you’d look at an IFR low-altitude chart and identify the two Victor airways that flank that spot. For KJVW, the two airways that bound that area are V245 on one side and V557 on the other, so KJVW lies between them. The other options don’t bound that location on the chart, so they aren’t the airways in question.
