CHAPTER EIGHT T-6B PRIMARY INSTRUMENT NAVIGATION<br />

8-18 TERMINAL PROCEDURES<br />

NOTE<br />

On some approach charts, a published lead radial (designated “lr–<br />

xxx”) is provided as an advisory point for turning onto the inbound<br />

course. These designated lead radials are based on the<br />

performance of the aircraft for which the approach was designed.<br />

For instance, at Eglin AFB, the approaches and lead radials were<br />

designed with the performance of the F–15 in mind. For this<br />

reason, published lead radials shall not be used in the T–6B. The<br />

pilot may elect to calculate the lead radial based on airspeed and<br />

distance from the NAVAID.<br />

4. Once established inbound, comply with the remainder of the Low Altitude Instrument<br />

Approach Procedures.<br />

Common Errors.<br />

1. Overshooting the arc or final approach course due to insufficient lead or slow scan of<br />

instruments.<br />

2. Failure to descend to minimum altitudes for the various approach segments.
