The video tutorial explains how to determine the position vectors of two airplanes, A and B, using a fixed axis at a reference point. It introduces the concept of a moving Cartesian axis for pilot B to find the relative position vector of airplane A. The tutorial further demonstrates how vector addition can be used to relate these position vectors, showing that the position vector of A is equal to the sum of the position vector of B and the relative position vector of A with respect to B.
