Also but not only. An easy way to find your way around was to follow a line feature, such as a main road or railway, particularly in less than perfect weather. The rule of the 'road' was to keep such line features on your LEFT, this way you didn't meet an equally 'unsure of his position' pilot coming the opposite way on your side as he would have the feature on his left, hopefully!!!
(The Bell 47G helicopter has the pilot on the left too!).
