What track heading will you follow when departing from 35R?

When departing from runway 35R, the track heading you will follow is 005 degrees. This is because the runway orientation dictates the initial heading after takeoff.

Runway 35R has a magnetic heading of approximately 350 degrees, and when you lift off and begin a climb, navigating to a track of 005 ensures you're moving in a direction that aligns closely with the runway's departure path, allowing for safe and efficient navigation away from the runway environment.

This position will generally facilitate a standard departure route that requires you to initially climb and turn in a way that maintains separation from other traffic and adheres to any air traffic control instructions. Following this heading helps pilots maintain situational awareness and ensures compliance with standard departure procedures.

Understanding the implications of runway headings is vital for pilots in order to safely execute departures and properly align with air traffic control directives.
