Default Lost stories here

So of like the "no **** story" I heard some years ago. Navigator says
"change course 1 degree to port". Pilot says "I can't change course 1
degree". Navigator says "change course 5 degrees to starboard", and pilot
complies. Then the navigator immediately says "change course 6 degrees to
port".


That's they way they did radar vectors in the old days (still??) when the
adjustment was only a degree or two.
