Between successive points on the ROUTE OF FLIGHT on the 1801, what is placed?

• A. DCT
• B. V/J Airway
• C. DCT or the V/J Airway
• D. No notation between points

Answer: (C)

The route between successive points is described using either a published airway or a direct track. When two fixes are connected by an established VOR-based airway, you place that V/J airway designation between them. If there isn’t a published airway linking the fixes, you indicate a direct route (DCT). So the proper notation for each leg is either a DCT or the appropriate V/J airway, depending on whether an airway exists for that segment. This is why the best choice reflects both possibilities. For example, a leg that follows the V5 airway would show V5 between the fixes, while a leg with no airway would show direct.
