KJVW is located between which two airways?

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

Answer: (D)

Victor airways are defined routes on IFR low-enroute charts, forming corridors that connect navigation aids. Saying a location is “between” two airways means it lies inside the strip of airspace bounded by the two route lines on the chart. For KJVW, the chart shows the corridor between V557 and V245 enclosing the waypoint. In other words, KJVW sits in the area bordered by those two airways, so those are the airways that define its position. The other pairings don’t bound KJVW on the chart—their routes don’t envelope the waypoint, so they don’t describe its location.
