Weather or terrain avoidance.<br />
ATC requirement – to loose time.<br />
To adjust ETA.<br />
PROCEDURE WHEN LOST<br />
After ETA has elapsed, maintain aircraft<br />
heading (compass and D.I. synchronised) for<br />
)<br />
maintain the desired ETA.<br />
v. Accuracy of timing is essential.<br />
i. From overhead the departure point or<br />
check point, turn onto the required track<br />
and select a prominent feature on the<br />
horizon directly ahead of the aircraft.<br />
ii. Fly towards the selected feature, ensuring<br />
the aircraft does not deviate from the<br />
required track, thereby automatically<br />
compensating for drift.<br />
iii. When approaching the feature, select<br />
another distant prominent feature on the<br />
track ahead of the aircraft.<br />
iv. The aircraft will be on track when it passes<br />
overhead the selected prominent features.<br />
v. Repeat this procedure until overhead the<br />
destination.<br />
i. Time.<br />
ii. Heading – if necessary, correct for drift.<br />
iii. Calculation of ground speed.<br />
iv. Revise ETA for next check point (also<br />
destination).<br />
v. Check temps, pressures and note<br />
remaining endurance.<br />
i. Identification of coding (morse code).<br />
ii. Approximate idea of position obtained from<br />
bearing interpretation (QDM, QDR).<br />
iii. Simultaneous bearings to obtain a fix.<br />
iv. Homing procedures.<br />
i. Lookout – assess proposed dog leg terrain<br />
is suitable.<br />
ii. Calculate required headings for procedures<br />
by adding and subtracting sixty degrees<br />
from the present heading.<br />
iii. Roll onto first required heading using<br />
medium turn. Upon rolling out on the new<br />
heading note the exact time.<br />
iv. After the appropriate time has elapsed, turn<br />
onto the second heading of the dog leg and<br />
note the time.<br />
v. Maintain the second heading for exactly<br />
the same time as for the first leg of the dog<br />
leg, then turn back onto to the original<br />
heading.<br />
vi. During this procedure, the aircraft will drift<br />
according to time and not distance covered<br />
along the track.<br />
Time permitting, complete as many of the<br />
following procedures as possible, bearing in mind<br />
