What are the airways that KJAN is inbetween?

• A. V555 - V11
• B. V11 - V9
• C. V557 - V9
• D. V245 - V557

Answer: (A)

Airways are VOR-based routes that connect different VORs, and an airport can lie between two such routes when its location sits between their centerlines on the IFR chart. For KJAN, the chart shows the field between the VOR airways V11 and V555, meaning those two low-altitude routes bracket the airport. This is why those airways are the ones KJAN is between. The other options do not form that bracket around the field on standard low-altitude charts, so they aren’t the pair that KJAN sits between.
