Hi 767 Bill


Basically what I have been doing is the double and half rule that I was taught or to use the 1 in 60.

That was to use those 10 degree fan lines on my chart.

If I was ever off track which has happened I would see if I am either 5 or 10 degress lets say within those fan lines.

Double that figure and then half it when I get back onto track.

So if I had a track of 300 and was off track by 5 degrees port, double this to 10 degrees and add to make it 310. Followed by half to 305 when I get back on track at the next way point.
