Thank you Dave! Much obliged, super to have this and to try this out. I programmed an airborne celestial navigator script, that simulates a flight and a variety of sights, and allows one to become proficient with the sight reduction, plotting, Polhemus.
Tony Oz helped me identify some bugs and it seems to work fine now. Arm-chair navigation!
I will give these forms a try a.s.a.p. Any suggestions for a route? What sextants were on the Vulcan?
