Obviously you don't really know how to read a Sectional and you have to
determine the minimum safe altitude from the Sectional whether you are on
or off of a Victor airway.


The minimum safe altitude for an airway isn't necessarily the same as the
maximum elevation figure for the quadrant on the sectional. Furthermore,
OROCAs on IFR charts are still different (with a more generous buffer).

Enough that there have been several articles about the subject.


Can you point me to some of them?
