Unless the forecast error is catastrophic you'd start with 5° rather than 10°, yes? So it's almost always going to be 5°, yes? Given I'm not going to faff around with the odd degree or two until we get to the fine tuning, if then, as I can't fly that accurately anyway.

So, you start with 5°. If that doesn't work try 10°. Then fine tune.
