Antiquated?
I have a problem, and it's called the CRP-5.
My problem? I can't use it, that's what the problem is. Every time I draw the lines/ dots on the thing, I get a different answer, so I have to ask myself this question:
WHY?
Why do we still have to use a whizz wheel in this day and age?
Before I go embarrasing myself and writing a letter to all sorts of magazines, and the CAA etc., maybe I could benefit from some wisdom, viz., that of the flying instructor.
If you can shed light as to why it is a useful skill to be able to use a whizz wheel as opposed to the electronic equivalent (made by the likes of Jeppesen and costing £20 less), I would be grateful.
