Take off from Tramecourt
Before take off:
Set Altimeter
Set Lorentz on 195 MHZ -
very important, it must be done before take off, to debug the AFN1 , and capture (Lorenz) signal at long distances (if don't do this
AFN-1 will "wake-up" only at ~2000 meters of distance from Lorenz antenna, too late...)
Set radio beacon to 311 MHZ - to guide you to starting point of the "hanging" zone for catch Lorentz at long distance
Speed up
Head west for 5 minutes
Turn to the North - climb to 3000m
After passing the mark (beacon 311 - (AFN1) white needle must be to the right, for 5 minutes:
Turn Eastern
If then catch the Lorentz signal: follow it, otherwise:
When (AFN1) the white needle is to the right: turn towards the Beacon 311
Aligned in this direction, you should catch Lorentz beam
In Compass Repeater the plane silhouette should point: 174
Start an glide path with a rate of 5 ~ 8m/s
