The early 747's still had the sextant mounting,
Murg ..... IIRC - but I wasn't there - Didn't the early 747s also have a LORAN set ?

Mounted somewhere outboard of the F/O's seat ...... Just in Case .......

Where would he lay the LORAN chart if he needed to plot a position ?

It was the size of a small bed sheet. You needed the A Bird's help to fold it.

LFH
