It’s interesting to see this thread resurrected.

I remember when I was learning instrument flying, I got pretty good at flying NDB holds - “triple the drift on the outbound leg” and all that stuff.


However I found tracking outbound from the beacon very difficult until my instructor pointed out that once you crossed the beacon on final approach, don’t change the heading. You will be close enough to see the runway environment when you break out at the MDA.
