    Landfall procedure

    Gary,

    I've read the Landfall procedure you used in your flight to Catalina island. Also, I read the AFM Landfall procedure portions you have on your website.

    In general it seems pretty simple but I have a question for you which probably applies to how Noonan would have used the Landfall procedure to find Howland.

    How did you determine the Hc of the shots based on your destination's location considering HO 249 is based on whole degree of Latitude and LHA?

    You can obtain such accuracy using a calculator but not with HO 249.

    I think we'd all enjoy hearing more your flight stories.

    Thanks,

    Sam Lohengrin
