Quote from Gary LaPook:
"Now if somebody made an aircraft plotter with a second scale running counter clockwise (actually, clockwise because the scale on an aircraft plotter already runs counter clockwise because how it is used) then it would be simple to just use Z."
The square Douglas protractor (5 and 10 inch) has these scales. A useful tool on a plotting sheet with no compass rose.
