In the 1940 volume there are the altitude correction tables for sun and stars and for the moon, which includes parallax in altitude, and the table for dip. The page facing this has the bubble sextant correction tables for sun and stars and the table for the moon including P in A. My other volumes dated 1952, 1958, 1962, 1967, and 1970 all have the Speed, Time and Distance tables inside the cover and on the facing page. gl -- NavList message boards: www.fer3.com/arc Or post by email to: NavList@fer3.com To , email NavList+@fer3.com
