Nice sketch Lars. And if level device is reversed a couple of times and the
“bubble” brought 50% back, the device error is eliminated, more or
less. As have been said before, with my ordinary surface
mirror AH, and simple torpedo level , total accuracy including me is about
3-4 NM, but could be maybe as good as 2-3 NM when multiple sets of data are
plotted or averaged,etc.
