VG post by Andy Gough.
This debate has been going on since the '60s! AH s and T and S had to be removed for constests outside the UK ( and Yugoslavia etc) but then the Bohli compass appeared which confused the issue. I personally proved to myself that I could manage for a while using a COOK compass, predecessor of the Bohli. Cloud climb with only ASI and vario! Wow. I would not try that in a modern ship. The GPS record should take care of transgressions, but wave either lee o thermal ,poses a problem. John Firth |
