I must admit that I am old fashioned and though I have also programed a calculator to do the calculations for in-flight celestial navigation I would like to see a simple graphical method for plotting the symmedian point. I posted before:
"Herbert, I reread Villarceau and your graphical method of determining the Symmedian point was not obvious to me. Could you give us more detail of your method using a 90-45-45 triangle?"
