[6] is a graphical representation of the carrier location and orientation. In this example it is off to the left and the landing deck is even further to the left. This would imply a gentle sweep to the left is required for the approach, once the approach line of the landing deck has been intersected (see [4]). | [6] is a graphical representation of the carrier location and orientation.

Ideally (with a stationary carrier and no wind) the perfect approach would be where Heading == BrgTo == DeckHg (so RelHdg == 0). But with the carrier moving away and a wind it will be unlikely to be that simple. Basically, a lot is going on here and so a good deal of spacial awareness is required. | Ideally (with a stationary carrier and no wind) the perfect approach would be where Heading == BrgTo == DeckHg (so RelHdg == 0).
