As Steve has noted there are two things happening:
(1) The bearing to point B along a great circle/ellipsoid path
from Point A to B varies along the path. (A computer/autopilot
can be set to follow the ever varying bearing.)

Thanks

I was looking for a formula that does the same, so that i can tell my
heading at a certain point on the course.

I will look at the links given.

Again many thanks all for the help.
