Narrative:
We had been cleared direct to djb, and leaving djb I inadvertently selected the wrong airway. We were supposed to be on J518. I felt uneasy about the heading and requested direct jst. The controller gave us a heading and then direct jst. She confirmed that we were off course. I think I was preoccupied. One must stay alert. Supplemental information from acn 458600: controller corrected us and cleared us direct to jst. No conflicts.
