Line Up and Wait
As I'm preparing for the IR checkride with the King Practical videos, I came across a scenario that confused me. In the examiners clearance to Martha, he gives her the following instructions.
Cleared BONDO INT
VIA:
OKB 145 radial
JLI 250 radial
MZB 007 radial
DIRECT BONDO
Martha then proceeds to fly outbound from OKB, inbound to JLI, and outbound from MZB direct to BONDO. My question is: other than looking through the chart as to what 'makes the most sense', based on that clearance, how would she know to fly inbound or outbound on a given radial?
In a more practical situation, shouldn't the controller specify whether to fly inbound or outbound? Again, I know you can just look at the chart and see what leads you to the desired fix, but it bothers me to not have a definitive answer!
