Turning base heading for the runway with flaps set to 30/40 and descending at 200 feet per minute. 2. Tracking precisely downwind at the specified altitude and heading. 3. Checking altitude hold and heading select when reaching the minimum descent altitude and turning 45 degrees to maintain track. 4. Capturing the localizer or LNAV when reaching the final approach fix 5 or 4 nautical miles from the runway with gear down and flaps set to 15.
