There should be no confusion with the running fix since both original and final LOPs are labeled with time on top and bearing angle on the bottom. A dashed line showing distance run (D=ST) is constructed parallel to the DR course defining how far the original LOP must be advanced. The final LOP is labelled with both original and final LOP time. An R FIX is constructed when the time difference between original and final LOPs is greated than 20 minutes otherwise it is treated as a normal FIX. Capt Joe W3HZM
