Dead on..also remember corrections/movements come in three's...put in a correction...take it out...adjust to stabilize...always small and to an observer it could be imperceptible

The PDIs are part of your scan...not the only part. As you see the whole picture scan them but don't fixate on them. Soon you will predict their movement/change because you see it coming.
Ask for Tanker AP off, PDI off, S-turn (30 & 45 AOB), limits demo, etc. once you get comfortable with the regular profile. Getting proficient at these will make getting that full bag of gas, over the pond, in marginal conditions much easier.
