Re: Gen Nav
Strange questions:
1) A small circle is an intersection of a sphere whose circumference is less than the sphere's. In geographic terms all parallels except for the equator are small circles. Meridians are not as they are the same circumference as the Earth (assuming the Earth is a sphere of course). So only some rhumb lines are small circles .
2) One. A circle ends where it starts! Why do I think that isn't the answer though?
