I did a little visual navigating in a video preview of the revived Microsoft Flight Simulator (let that sink in... it's back). All preview reports describe it as stunning.
I'll let you all give this visual navigation problem a try. At timestamp 5:23, in the video linked below, what is your longitude? What feature(s) did you find most helpful in determining your longitude? There's no celestial in it yet, but of course, the stars are an easy addition to a product like this, so I look forward to seeing a sextant simulation in future mods of the new product.
