Same question here as when Mr. Charles McElhill started this thread: what correction did they use, calculated or table ?
Such "correction" - seemingly unanswered as of to-day (Nov 1st, 2025) - is to cover (at least) both Refraction "below" the horizon as well as Dip.
Can/could anybody get hold of and publish here such Corrections Table(s) specially devised for such Airships then ?
Thanks in advance,
Kermit
