Which fix is located at MLU 072 @ 49 miles?

• A. HEDUD
• B. YAZOO
• C. HATER
• D. KVKS

Answer: (C)

Fixes along an airway are defined by a navigational aid, a course (radial), and a distance from that aid. In this case, “MLU 072 @ 49 miles” means the fix located along the MLU VOR/DME’s 072-degree radial, 49 miles from MLU. Among the options, only HATER sits at that exact position on that radial and distance; the others are on different radials or at different mileages from MLU. So HATER is the fix you’d encounter at MLU 072 and 49 miles. When checking on charts, verify by looking at the mileage along the MLU 072 airway to confirm.
