to get to take-off we push the throttle all the way in.
At positive rate of climb, raise the landing gear and accelerate to 90 knots.
Then raise the flaps and keep on climbing.
Now we can switch on the autopilot.
The autopilot itself is turned on by pressing theAPbutton.
If heading was not set earlier, then set it to 255 using the knob and press theHDGbutton.
We can immediately tune theOTAVOR frequency (117.45) as shown above.
The indicated distance to the VOR is 65,4 nm.
Now rotate the course knob to achieve a solid white line and to flip the small white triangle upwards.
We will begin to intercept that VOR as soon as the distance is reduced to 50 nm.
The course informs us about the aircraft location in relation to the VOR.
Let’s imagine a line connecting the aircraft with the VOR.
The azimuth of the line (looking from the VOR) is called the outbound radial.
If we add 180 degrees, we receive the inbound radial.
The indications shown above inform us that we fly the 250-degree heading.
