Narrative:
On departure off runway 2R at bna airport; we were given a titan I departure which states; turn heading 045 degrees and intercept the 068 degree radial. As we departed; we waited until 400 ft (standard turn altitude at company); before turning to a heading of 045 degrees. At 400 ft; when we turned; we had already passed the 068 degree radial. By the time we realized the radial was behind us and we could turn back toward the radial; departure control gave us a vector for traffic. We should have turned immediately after takeoff to intercept the radial. After reviewing company procedures; we realized that we could turn earlier than 400 ft if required by a departure procedure.

Title: CL65 ON RWY 2R TITAN DEP FROM BNA FAIL TO TURN PROMPTLY TO INTERCEPT BNA 068 DEG RADIAL AS REQUIRED.
Narrative: ON DEP OFF RWY 2R AT BNA ARPT; WE WERE GIVEN A TITAN I DEP WHICH STATES; TURN HDG 045 DEGS AND INTERCEPT THE 068 DEG RADIAL. AS WE DEPARTED; WE WAITED UNTIL 400 FT (STANDARD TURN ALT AT COMPANY); BEFORE TURNING TO A HDG OF 045 DEGS. AT 400 FT; WHEN WE TURNED; WE HAD ALREADY PASSED THE 068 DEG RADIAL. BY THE TIME WE REALIZED THE RADIAL WAS BEHIND US AND WE COULD TURN BACK TOWARD THE RADIAL; DEP CTL GAVE US A VECTOR FOR TFC. WE SHOULD HAVE TURNED IMMEDIATELY AFTER TKOF TO INTERCEPT THE RADIAL. AFTER REVIEWING COMPANY PROCS; WE REALIZED THAT WE COULD TURN EARLIER THAN 400 FT IF REQUIRED BY A DEP PROC.
