Wow, thanks guys. I have no idea why I never even thought of using my flight computer to figure that out but I just did it, and it works perfectly! I feel like an idiot now! My instructor didn't think of that either so I guess I'm not the only one. I tried it interpolate and there is no set formula that you can use and interpolation would be a good quick guess if you had to on the spot I guess but it's not ass accurate as the calculator. So thanks, now I know how to explain! Oh another thing, I was never taught it was GS as opposed to IAS but that makes sense. I guess I never thought of that either. My head is spinning from all the stuff I have to learn.

flap, I know of the link that you sent me but unfortunately that link or anything else on the FAA website tells the IFR Alternate Airport Minimums section E1. Do you understand what I'm looking for?
