Narrative

DEPARTING JFK ON THE JFK 9 CANARSIE CLB. PF WAS FO. TOOK OFF; TURNED L TO THE CRI VOR. ON CHK-IN WITH DEP; LEVELOFF ALT WAS CHANGED FROM 5000 FT TO 4000 FT. THE CREW CLEANED UP THE ACFT ON SCHEDULE. THE PF CALLED FOR SPD INTERVENE OF 250 KTS. PNF SELECTED A HDG TO INTERCEPT THE CRI 176 DEG RADIAL PRIOR TO REACHING THE CRI VOR. PF BEGAN A L TURN WHILE LEVELING AT 4000 FT. THE ACFT CROSSED THE CRI VOR IN THE TURN. WHILE ROLLING OUT ON A HDG TO INTERCEPT THE 176 DEG RADIAL; DEP CALLED AND ASKED WHICH DEP WE WERE DOING. THE PNF RESPONDED THAT WE WERE ON THE JFK 9 CANARSIE. DEP RESPONDED WITH 'NOT EVEN CLOSE!' THE CREW CHKED THE 20-3A PAGE; THE HSI; AND VOR IN ORDER TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS WRONG. THE PNF TOLD DEP THAT WE WERE GOING OUT THE 176 DEG RADIAL AND TO CONFIRM THAT WAS CORRECT FOR THE CANARSIE CLB. DEP RESPONDED TO THE EFFECT THAT WE WERE SUPPOSED TO 'TRACK IT OUTBOUND.' WHILE THIS WAS GOING ON; THE PF BALLOONED TO APPROX 4300 FT. WHEN THE PF SAW THE ERROR; HE DSNDED BACK TOWARDS 4000 FT. DEP THEN CALLED AND SAID THAT 'YOU BUSTED 4000 FT. CLB TO 5000 FT' AND GAVE US A L TURN TO 090 DEGS. THE REMAINDER OF THE DEP/FLT WAS UNREMARKABLE. SUPPLEMENTAL INFO FROM ACN 686337: THE PROB FOR US COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF WE HAD BRIEFED AND PROGRAMMED THE LNAV WITH RWY 31L CRI 176 DEG RADIAL/20 (PLT CONSTRUCTED) AND FLOWN THIS AFTER TKOF. THIS WOULD HAVE ANTICIPATED THE TURN FOR US AND KEPT US ON TRACK EXACTLY.
