Aircraft navigation is the process by which pilots determine their aircraft's position and guide it to its destination. This involves using various tools and techniques, including GPS, radio navigation aids, and visual references. Pilots rely on maps and flight plans to ensure they stay on course and avoid obstacles. Modern aircraft often use advanced systems like inertial navigation systems and autopilot to assist in navigation. These systems help maintain accurate flight paths and improve safety. Additionally, air traffic control provides guidance to pilots, ensuring safe distances between aircraft and efficient routing through busy airspace.
