Pick a runway at KSFO (San Francisco intnl.) use 28 R (right) . Get off the ground and turn on heading of 150 degrees. Now set nav1 to Salinas(117.3) DME about 65 knots away and steer the 777 toward the needle ( if the needle deviates from the 12 o'clock position ) you steer toward or into the needle, it will begin to move back toward 12 o'clock . Doing this frequently is called bird dogging (or bracketing) and should be avoided.

Let's now set nav 2 (be sure to switch both nav toggle switches on the panel and set nav 2 to 114.3, when you are approx 20 -30 DME away from Salinas steer onto the nav 2 needle to 12 o'clock i.e. pointing straight ahead and set nav 1 to our next beacon, make sure you remember which needle is for nav1 and which is for nav 2, nav 2 is the " Double Bladed One "
