Back in February we discussed the skycompass that made use of the poarized light form the sun below the horizon to determine direction and how I had mounted a polarizer on my astrocompass to do the sme. I have now recieved the ION cd and there are two articles that discuss this. Item 240 discuses the Pfund sky compass and item 213 discuses the air force modifiction to the astrocompass similar to mine. gl --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to NavList@fer3.com To , send email to NavList-@fer3.com -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
