    Re: Hc by azimuth diagram
    From: Hanno Ix

    Actually, I think I am familiar with the Intercept Method, but thank you for the hint.
    I enjoyed reading about it again.The issue here refers to the tools, not the method, however. 

    I recently proposed a chart that allows finding the azimuth rather simply.
    Then I discovered to my astonishment, it can also serve in finding hc - rather imperfectly but still usefully.

    Gary, if you are reading this, would you please e-mail Rommel a copy of the diagram as I have no
    access to my own CelNav files? He might not have one.

    Regards
    h

    PS: Rommel, I am looking forward to some math related discussions when my computer is back.
    I hope I can surprise you with another discovery!

    Hanno mentions the Intercept Method used in HO 229 a good article on the method, plus a very detailed of how to compute the given results can be found at:
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercept_method
    Having this link might assist Hanno while his computer is down and might also save him time and energy in reentering his data.
    I love math and that is why I am a Navigator!
