Localizer Back Course
Step 1. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
The localizer back course
approach begins with a
transition from an enroute
structure to intercept the
back course outbound.
An alternate method
would be to set the
inbound front course with
the heading bug and
press the APR switch to
set up a 45° intercept to
the back course.
Step 2. APR/ATT or
ALT.
After the intercept, the
autopilot will track the
outbound course and
compensate for any
crosswind and begin "soft
track".
Step 3. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
At the appropriate time,
press the HDG switch to
begin the procedure turn.
Altitude appropriate to
this phase of the
approach should be
controlled using ALT or
ATT as necessary
Step 4. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
Proceed outbound in the
procedure turn until
sufficient time has
elapsed to assure proper
re-interception.
Step 5. HDG/ATT or
ALT.
Lead the aircraft through
the procedure turn by
moving the heading bug
in the direction of the
turn.
