3. Turn to Intercept a Victor
Airway
The “TO” indicator starts to
swing to “FROM” as you fly over
the Napoleon VORTAC station. At
this time, set the selected course
pointer on the V-12 course of
088°.
As you begin your left turn to
track V-12, notice that the
KI525A HSI continuously dis-
plays an accurate picture of the
relationship between your aircraft
and the ANX 088 radial.
Once again, you can make a pre-
cise, coordinated course inter-
ception by adjusting your head-
ing to keep the top of the
deviation bar touching the lub-
ber line.
4.
When the deviation bar is
centered and aligned with the
course arrow, you are on
course. Notice that correction
for wind drift - in this case, a
080° heading on a 088°
course - is completely auto-
matic as long as you keep the
deviation bar centered.
5.
About midway between
Napoleon and Columbia
(CBI), you switch to the CBI
VOR and the TO/FROM indi-
cator immediately swings to
“TO”. Also note the course
arrow should be moved from
088° to 090° which is the
V-12 inbound course to CBI.
