I. Navigation procedures
A. VOR/TACAN intercepts 2.7.7.3.3.2 2.7.7.3.3.1
NOTE: The following intercept procedures refer only to
VOR. For TACAN intercept procedures, replace the No. 1
bearing pointer with the No. 2 bearing pointer.
1. Proceeding direct to station (inbound radial)
a. Tune and identify station
b. Turn aircraft in shortest direction to place No. 1
(VOR) bearing pointer under HSI upper lubber line
(heading index)
c. Rotate course set knob (CRS) to center CDI on
course pointer with a TO indication
d. Note and maintain selected course to station
COMMON ERROR: Not correcting for wind drift and
homing instead of proceeding direct to the station.
2. 30-degree inbound radial intercept
a. Tune and identify station
b. Set desired course in course selection window
c. Look from desired course to head of the bearing
pointer used and 30 degrees beyond to determine
intercept heading
d. Turn aircraft to the intercept heading
e. Maintain intercept heading until lead point is reached
f. Complete intercept
