Stuck with Nav
Hey,

I've got a Nav exam in - oh, 12 hours (yes, no sleep for me tonight...) - and I can't actually read the 1:500 000 map to save my life. I've also packed away my Navigation and Meteorology PPL book and it's somewhere at the bottom of some cardboard box. Point being, I'm doomed.

Can anyone please help me out? All I want to know is that when you get this in the question: N5051.57 W00045.55 what exactly does it mean? I used googlemaps to find the place (Chichester/Goodwood) but don't really see how the numbers correspond to the actual position of the airfield .

So please help me?
