Good job Michael,
You get double extra credit for using hav Doniol to solve for GC distance and the Ix diagram for solving initial course. Note that there is very little difference between Rhumb line and G.C. course and distance because the couse is near north south and the departure / arrival latitudes are within 21° of the equator.
