A DEP B747-200 FREIGHTER DEVIATES FROM THE BERGI SID SW OF AMS; FO.
MAY/XX/99; EHAM TO JFK. ON DEP FAILED TO FLY ACCURATE SID 'BERGI DEPS RWY 24;' FO FLYING. THIS WAS THE FO'S FIRST TKOF IN A B747 AFTER SIMULATOR TRAINING AT THE CTLS WITH CAPT/CHK AIRMAN IN L SEAT. BEFORE TKOF WE DID A THOROUGH BRIEFING OF DEP AND SID. FO DID TKOF; FLEW RWY HEADING TO 4 DME FIX SPL RWY 24; TURNED L HDG 226 DEGS TO INTERCEPT PAM 253 DEG RADIAL. HE FAILED TO TURN L AT THE 19 DME AND INTERCEPT THE 331 DEG BEARING FROM CLT NDB. BY THE TIME I REALIZED THIS HE WAS ABOUT 5 MI PAST THE FIX. I TOLD HIM TO TURN AND HE WAS SLOW TO RESPOND. ON THE 331 DEG BEARING FROM CLT WE WERE TO INTERCEPT THE RTM 357 DEG RADIAL AND FLY TO BERGI INTXN. BECAUSE HE WAS SLOW TO TURN AND WE MISSED THE FIX; WE FLEW OUTSIDE OF THE SID TOLERANCES. MY FAILURE TO NOTICE THIS SOON ENOUGH CONTRIBUTED TO OUR FAILURE TO FLY THE SID PROPERLY. I WAS BUSY TUNING NAV AND COM RADIOS AND TALKING TO ATC. THIS; COMBINED WITH THE FO'S LACK OF EXPERIENCE; ALSO ADDED TO FLYING OUTSIDE OF THE SID TOLERANCE. I SHOULD HAVE FLOWN THIS SID AND HAVE HAD THE FO NAV.
