T-6A NAVIGATION

The last point specified on the route is the target. An equilateral triangle with 5 NM legs and the

base perpendicular to the inbound course will identify the target (Figure 2-1). Thus, the target

triangle cannot be drawn until course lines are plotted. The point prior to the target shall be

annotated with a square (Figure 2-1).

Figure 2-1 Target

Point labels should be 1/4 to 1/2 inch in size such that prominent chart details are not hidden.

Labels will be aligned in relation to the inbound course to that turnpoint. For the first point of

the route, orient the label with the outbound course (Figure 2-2).
