dude your idea of homing to station is so wrong! you dont just keep the needle up. you pick an inbound track. and stay on it. needle should be deflected the same amount of degrees that you are deviated from your heading you chose. ex. desired track 360. if you take up 355 RB should be 005. Teach people the right way! who wants to fly a curve and burn more gas and take longer! NO ONE!
@clickclickspacebar This video explains exactly what homing is, including the fact that it is less direct/efficient than tracking to the station by bracketing, which is what you're describing. Bracketing is demonstrated in the next video in the series.
@captjb407 That was a very polite way to deal with that "situation" :) Also I am liking the videos very much although I do have to do backtracking every once in a while to fully abosrb everything in them.
Good comeback for no it all clickclickspacebar =)
