    >> Since your input speeds are only to a one-tenth of a knot precision and the course to one degree, it makes no sense to state the results to one-hundredths of a knot and the current correction angle to one-tenth of a degree<<

    You are quite correct.  Mea culpa.  Thank you for this  - I have made corrections in my draft of the manual - and for illustrating the various flight computers.
