PLT OF MIL MLG ACFT OVERSHOT A SID TRACK HDG DUE TO A DELAYED TURN DURING CLBOUT.

Narrative

FIRST LINE FLT FOR COPLT IN THE SQUADRON. COPLT FLYING; GIVEN FROM ATC; 'HDG 060 DEG INTERCEPT DFW 090 DEG RADIAL AND RESUME THE DALL 8 DEP.' COPLT TURNED SLOW TO INTERCEPT RADIAL; CTLR CALLED 3 MI N OF RADIAL. WE TURNED TO FURTHER INTERCEPT AND CTLR CALLED 'PARALLELING N OF RADIAL AND HAD THERE BEEN INBOUND TFC; MY POS COULD BE IN CONFLICT. WE TURNED FURTHER TO INTERCEPT AND I TOLD CTLR 'I THOUGHT I HAD 4 NM EACH SIDE OF THIS RADIAL.' HE SAID 'THIS IS A SID NOT AN AIRWAY; THE 4 NM DOESN'T APPLY.' AS AN INSTRUCTOR; I ALLOW A LITTLE MORE VARIATION FROM NEW PLTS AND THOUGHT I WAS IN PROTECTED AIRSPACE. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO CONFLICTING TFC. MY REVIEW OF 'AIR TFC CTL DATA -- UNITED STATES ON ATC CLRNCS/SEPARATIONS; DEPS -- IFR. ENRTE IFR HAS NOT TURNED UP ANY DATA ON HOW MUCH PROTECTED AIRSPACE I HAVE ON A SID OTHER THAN 4 NM EACH SIDE OF CTRLINE ON A PUBLISHED AIRWAY OR RTE. ALSO THE NOTE: 'CERTAIN SEPARATION STANDARDS ARE INCREASED IN THE TERMINAL ENVIRONMENT WHEN CENRAP IS BEING UTILIZED.' I DON'T KNOW WHAT THESE CERTAIN SEPARATION STANDARDS ARE BUT I WOULD AND LIKE TO IF I'M GOING TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEM. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO. RPTR WAS ADVISED THAT THERE ARE NO STANDARD PROTECTED AIRSPACE CRITERIA PROVIDED TO PLTS FOR STANDARD DEPS; ARRS OR RADAR VECTORS. THE FLC ARE EXPECTED TO ADHERE TO THE HDGS; RADIALS AND ALTS; AND TO TURN; CLB OR DSND UPON RECEIVING ATC INSTRUCTIONS. IN ADDITION; HE WAS ADVISED THAT THE CLOSER TO TERMINAL AREAS; THE CLOSER WILL BE THE ALLOWABLE ATC SEPARATION STANDARDS. HE WAS APPRECIATIVE OF THE CALLBACK AND SAID THAT IT WAS THE FIRST OF HIS MANY NASA RPTS SUBMITTED. HE FURTHER STATED THAT THE FO WAS FLYING WHO WAS NEW TO THE ACFT WHICH CAUSED A SLOWER THAN NORMAL REACTION TO TURN THE ACFT.
