Cazatou,
Within accuracy limits of plotting from a half mil LFC. There is no misplot of the lighthouse.
If the crew planned to acquire the lighthouse visually, and then turn and follow the coast, the vertical extent of the TP would be a real bonus. The vast majority of this thread, and the BOI seem to favour this hypothesis.
During my time flying, I, and many others, would often place our little circles (TPs) next to objects like the Belmont Mast. We never had any intention of flying over the top, but they wern't half easy to find.
I don't know what Lt K chose for his TP. But given the choice what would you choose? I believe that LT K has been approached, but does not want to get involved. Dead end there.
Whatever he chose, he had plenty of chances to tell JT.
In the unlikely event he failed to do both, see Meadowbank 4968.
