Absolutely! I'm envious, you've got your hands on a biplane to use.

Mr LaPook,
I have been flying a biplane solo recently, using various sextants and a facsimile Bygrave, to investigate the problems Chichester faced. My experience so far reveals a different problem from the expected trouble with plotting, sight taking, and computing.
Would you be prepared to continue this discussion
individually?
