Figure 16: Extreme Case Example of a Track Change Manoeuvre

Attention is here to be paid to that the minimum distance between two successive
radii has been defined to be 350 m and that, therefore, with a speed of approx. 20 kn the
shortest approach time time that may occur in this most unfavorable case is still
approx. 70s.
