What intersection is on V427?

• A. DINKY
• B. HATER
• C. UBABY
• D. DESKE

Answer: (B)

When you’re identifying intersections on a Victor airway, the key idea is that airways are defined paths between VORs, and the chart shows five-letter fixes that lie exactly along that path. To know which intersection sits on V427, you trace the line labeled V427 on the IFR enroute chart and look for fixes that fall directly on that line. The intersection that lies on V427 is HATER, meaning the airway passes through that point. The other names—DINKY, UBABY, and DESKE—do not lie on the V427 path, so they aren’t intersections on that airway. In practice, you’d verify by checking the chart or using a GPS overlay to confirm which fixes are on the airway between its defining VORs.
