Title: Calculate a course intercept.
Course: Aircraft Pilot Training II (20053-II) > Section: Understanding Aircraft Performance

Calculation should include the following:

- The angle of intercept is the angle between the heading of the aircraft (intercept heading) and the desired course.
- Controlling this angle by selection/adjustment of the intercept heading is the easiest and most effective way to control course interceptions.
- Angle of intercept must be greater than the degrees from course, but should not exceed 90°.
