Greg,
You have just used Robert Bernecky’s improved tables to complete a Minelli time sight. Well done!
3 years ago, you produced your Doniol based All Haversine system. This was modified to form an all haversine (or versine) time sight method.
In practical, on board terms, which system is better for a time sight?
Regards,
Brian Walton
