"Still wind planning and no need to ever touch the confuser (haven't even touched it since EFT Groundschool, found it in the bottom of a box whilst re-orging my loft the other day!) Never seen anyone in my neck of the woods using one!"

Or do you somehow view the use of navigation computers as a sign of inadequacy?
Do make sure you plan accurately if you ever end up driving one of Pusser's boats near any rocks.......
