Creating a Parallel Track Pattern
The Parallel Track SAR pattern starts at the initial waypoint and follows the
initial track for the length of the first parallel track leg. A 90° turn in the initial
turn direction leads to the spacing leg with a length equal to the track spacing.
Another 90° turn leads to the second parallel track leg. The turns at the end
of the second parallel track leg are in the opposite direction as the previous
parallel track leg. The parallel track pattern terminates once the desired number
of parallel track legs have been flown. The default initial track for the Parallel
Track Pattern is True North.
