At point HUGHES, which aircraft holds the ROW over Echo?

• A. Echo has ROW over Whiskey
• B. Hughes has ROW over Whiskey
• C. Fog has ROW over Echo
• D. Whiskey has ROW over Echo

Answer: (C)

In this scenario, right-of-way is determined by which aircraft is on the right side of the other as their paths cross. At point HUGHES, Fog sits to Echo’s right, so Fog has the right of way over Echo. Echo must yield and adjust if needed to avoid conflict. The other options don’t fit the observed geometry at that intersection: none of those aircraft are on Echo’s right, so they don’t have the ROW over Echo.
