You are correct that it is impossible to fly direct to the intersection.
But you can take a heading that will intercept one of the two radials, and
then you fly along that radial to intersection. I realize this can be done
with the left/right technique also, but it requires a lot of mind numbming
visualizations. It is really trivial the other way.


What is mind-numbing to one is trivial for another, with no
denegration intended.

It's important to understand the instrument. Once you do, pick the
technique that works for you, while not forgetting the fundamentals of
the instrument.
