89° 60.0'
- 74° 06.3'
ZD 15° 53.7'
89° 60' instead of 90° 00'. Thats a clever way of getting zenith distance Gary. I must have missed that trick. I supose it's the celnav version of borrowing and paying back, but if I've ever seen it before, I must have forgotten it, perhaps because we never really looked for Mer Pass. It was AP3270 all the time after training. DaveP
