3. Double angle off the bow inbound method

a. Tune and identify station

b. Set desired course in course selection window

pointer selected and an equal number of degrees

beyond to determine intercept heading (max

45 degrees)

d. Turn aircraft to the intercept heading

e. Maintain intercept heading until lead point is reached

f. Complete intercept

COMMON ERROR: Looking from the head of the
