Hi Peter,
No tables of any kind?! Wow! That would probably eliminate some of the index card cheat sheets also.
If possible, I'd invoke the strict reading of "no tables" and pull out my trusty slide rule.
If that's not legal, I'd probably run down a latitude line and approach the shore carefully.
I'd probably make land before I could derive the formulas.
Regards, Noell
