Hi Huub,
On my website, "Papers - Advanced Navigation" section,
there are two papers:
- Celestial Fix - 2 LoPs
- Vector Solution for the intersection of two Circles of Equal Altitude (also an Android APP Fix by 2 CoPs - vector solution )
The 1st uses basic math. For the 2nd one dot and vector product is needed.
Enjoy.
Fair winds!
