the books i'm trying to learn from mention that it is possible to make your own plotting charts on graph or blank paper, but they don't give any more info... it seems like i will need to create a map projection for the needed lattitude...i'm not sure how i go about scaling lattitude to longitude at different lattitudes...is there a formula that does this?? (i would rather not be dependent on buying and stowing a bunch of plotting charts) thanks, m __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
