    Recently I made my first flight as a pilot in an ULM (see pic), 20 minutes, amazing!

    I have some question for Gary LaPook, or other celestial navigators and pilots:
    The flight was very stable, but without an autopilot an aircraft bubble sextant is suitable for shooting the stars in a ULM where the pilot and the navigator is the same person?. I have only experience in marine sextants.

    There Is available a free book by FAA including celestial navigation:
    Flight Navigator Handbook (PDF)

    Thanks,
