I was practicing the following NDB-A approach
at F46 (Rockwall -- East of Dallas, TX)
http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0409/06323NA.PDF
And asked for the full approach.
Without GPS or vectors what's the best way to get
turned around outbound if I am on a heading of 090
to intercept the NDB IAF?
I would wait until I had station passage at PQF (i.e. the needle
flipped) then begin a right turn to a heading of 060. I would hold 060
heading until you had intercepted the 027 bearing from the NDB, i.e.
until the needle was about 30 degrees off the centerline. Then I would
turn right to 207 (plus or minus a WAG at the required wind direction)
and start tracking outbound for about a minute, then begin my procedure
turn.
When I was all done with the approach, I would tear the damned ADF out
of the panel and install a GPS. :-)
