Today I was up at Rochester at 11:30 to carry on my training. Todays lesson was a continuation of yesterday with the addition of NDB/ADF tracking. This is the top track in the picture below. Basically we left Runway 20, turned left and picked up the 94 QDM radial TO Detling. From there I continued out 8.5 DME on the same radial and did a procedural turn right heading down 139 degrees for 1 minute. Then following this a left hand rate 1 turn back up on a heading of 319 degrees to pick up the 270 TO radial. Back at the Detling beacon I switched over to the ADF to track up to Rochester and their NDB. From there it was a question of tracking out (NW), looping back and tracking towards the NDB again. From there it was outbound east followed by another procedural turn and back again.
I have a week off now but look forward to the next phase. I think I have two more lessons in this subject area including being introduced to holding patterns before it gets really interesting.
