Narrative:
ZDC gave us a 060 degree heading to intercept the balance 294 degree radial. I turned to 060 degree heading and set the radial in the HSI. I turned to intercept the radial as it came to center in the HSI and checked the radial set. I saw the 284 degree radial was set and turned back to 060 degrees. ZDC then gave us a 040 degree heading to intercept. The rest of the flight continued uneventfully.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: J-32 CREW MISSET THE HSI AND TURNED TO FLY INBOUND ON THE 284 DEG RADIAL VERSUS THE 294 DEG RADIAL.
Narrative: ZDC GAVE US A 060 DEG HDG TO INTERCEPT THE BAL 294 DEG RADIAL. I TURNED TO 060 DEG HDG AND SET THE RADIAL IN THE HSI. I TURNED TO INTERCEPT THE RADIAL AS IT CAME TO CTR IN THE HSI AND CHKED THE RADIAL SET. I SAW THE 284 DEG RADIAL WAS SET AND TURNED BACK TO 060 DEGS. ZDC THEN GAVE US A 040 DEG HDG TO INTERCEPT. THE REST OF THE FLT CONTINUED UNEVENTFULLY.
