It seems that I did not time the barometer drop from the bridge wing correctly ;-) I used 22:00:00 for my sun UT vs 22:01:00 thus Antoine and Lars have done well ! with their height of eye measurement and I have a bad case of the bends . On my second attempt an assumed position of 25° 42' N 75° 26' W was used with a height of eye at 152 ft. This seems to have the LOPs on top of each other with zero intercept. What we have is just an EP though and not a fix.
