David,
We are attempting to solve the general case of EAL's in order to check whether they cut or not EAC's.
I definitely would like all EAL's to be such great circles of equal Azimuth in the general case.
And unless somebody proves that they all are GC's, I really think that - most unfortunately for all of us - EAL's are not that simple, otherwise it would have been known and taught for long.
Best Regards
Antoine M. Couëtte
