Tony,
The small booklet should be quite handy. A note- the single multiplication step for the 4 place natural haversine step can be done nicely using an Otis King slide rule as first performed and recommended here on NavList by Francis Upchurch. The calculated altitude Hc is to a minute of precision whether done longhand or by Otis King slide rule.

Dear Roger, thank you for the suggestion.
My goal is to create a booklet for the "longhand all-Haversine SR" by Greg Rudzinski with his worksheet included, where 4-place is enough.
Regards,
Tony
