Hi,
I am Richard Marks, volunteer at Air Mobility Command (AMC) Museum, Dover AFB, DE. Our museum is trying to locate a handheld sextant that we could use to teach young folks how we, old time navigators, shot sun lines and 3-star. Our objective is to ensure legacy navigation remains alive in this period of GPS. The mission of our museum is to show the public aircraft of the "transportation" venue. I would welcome any and all contacts dealing with celestial navigation particularily where I might located HO249 tables, precomps, etc. And if you are ever in Delaware, visit our museum. It's free with guided tours.
Any old nav please contact me. I want to keep our profession alive. There aren't many of us left who depended on celestial, pressure pattern, loran, radar,etc and I would like to develop a nav display capturing the time when we, not computers, were the navigators. My email address is richardsmarks{at}comcast.net and my phone is 302 462-7096.
