Which route has 13 miles NW SQS?

• A. V18 from MHZ towards MLU
• B. V427 in MLU LO
• C. V278 from SQS towards GLH
• D. V417 from MHZ towards MLU

Answer: (C)

The concept here is using Victor airways and VOR positions: a location described as “13 miles NW of SQS” will lie on an airway that passes through the SQS VOR and extends in the northwest direction from there. Among the options, the airway that runs from the SQS VOR toward GLH matches that NW path, so a point 13 miles NW of SQS would lie on that route. The other airways either don’t pass through SQS or don’t proceed in that NW direction from SQS, so they wouldn’t include that point. So the route is the one from SQS toward GLH.
