“See the lines with the dots from Pt San Pedro to Point Bonita? The side of the line which contains dots begins the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Then as you continue west, you run into another set of dots, which ends that sanctuary. But immediately past that is another line with yet another series of dots. Well, that starts the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary. What I'm trying to show you is that these special areas are always shown from one dot border to another. Check it out some day when you have a full sized sectional!”
4) According to the Federal Aviation Regulations manual, what does the abbreviation “VOR” stand for?
