Over the past few years there has been a growing feeling in the aviation community that the time has come for the use of true direction to replace magnetic direction in General Aviation. The reason’s why are ably described in the attached article (released courtesy of the Editor of Navigation News) by my friend and fellow navigator the late Paul Hickley.
Thanks for posting that article. One thing puzzles me. Why would it have taken a week to repaint the runway numbers?
