I have begun with H.O. 229 and purchased vol 3. Up till now I don't find it very confusing and enjoy the challenge of looking up the data. Thanks especially for the links to the Naut Alm. and the calculators. My biggest issue so far has been determining exactly what to use for A Long. if the min are close it is a no brainer however sometimes I feel like I should choose differently. i worked one problem using a LHA of 69 and one with 68 (for example) and found that I got the same basic answer once I plotted, just one intercept towards and one away. Would that always be the case and therefore not as critical a decision as I have made it out to be?? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To , send email to NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
