I agree with Bluebeards method it is the one I used. I would add that finding an good reference point for starting the diversion is helpful.. .. .During my skill test the examiner asked me to divert whilst we were over the M4 at Membury, nice big mast there.. .. .Another tip was given by one of my instructors, I use the staedtler lumocolor pens and have marked onto it white rings at 10nm intervals, as a quick guide it worked well during a diversion. .. .Best advice is to relax and enjoy it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />. . . . <small>[ 12 March 2002, 15:46: Message edited by: What a Loop ]</small>
