3) ATC instructs the pilot to turn left to a heading

of 025°. This places the aircraft parallel to the
final approach course in the opposite direction.
CDI needle deflection is to the left.

4) ATC instructs the pilot to turn right to a heading

of 115°.

5) ATC instructs the pilot to turn right to a heading

of 175° to intercept the final approach course.
When converging with the final approach course
the needle moves toward the center. (In Figure
5-45, the needle has not yet returned to the
on-screen CDI, since the current position is still
1.7 nm right of the final approach course.)
