In air navigation, a method of pressure-pattern flight utilizing a single value of drift-correction angle applied to an entire flight from point of origin to destination.

The value is based upon a forecast of mean wind velocity en route.
See multiple drift correction;
compare aerologation, single-heading navigation.
