Showing you age there David, and experience.
I am only an amateur when it comes to this nav business but I can recall doing some basic checks on sextants and drift sights on Super Constellations way back in the late 50s, I was but a mere apprentice at the time.
I have been tempted to purchase an aviation bubble sextant but find I get into enough trouble with a standard sextant.
Interesting posts all the same.
