Radio Procedure - Runway ID

No, headings are just rounded to a different level.

No, headings are rounded and the rounded number is fully stated. Runway
headings are rounded and then nicknamed. 9 is not the same as 90, even
if runway 9 points to heading 090.

True...headings are always rounded off to the nearest one degree. There
IS a difference after all!

The implication of your explanation is of course that things that are
rounded to the tens place should only be the number of digits required to
represent those numbers, but things that are rounded to the ones place
should be three digits?

Hmmm...there's something wrong with that logic, but I can't quite put my
finger on it.

That's because you don't use logic.

It's your "logic" you're commenting on there, not mine.

No, I'm commenting on your inability to put your finger on anything wrong
with my logic. The reason you can't, of course, is you don't use logic.
Thank you for proving my point.

Headings are always three digits. Runways never are.


I know. The interesting question is why?



Because, unlike headings, runways are always rounded off to the nearest ten
degrees.



So, headings are rounded off to the nearest degree. Still doesn't
answer the leading zero question.

The question was why headings are always three digits while runways never
are. See above.
