mm43,
As I continue to glance from one graphic to the other (from a short-lived post of his, think
HN39 may also be finding it tough
), I notice that the graticule of Lat/Long you (?) have recently superimposed on the original one, in #
685, is calibrated in decimals of degrees.
This means that, for example, your own back-tracked position for the impact point of the vertical stabiliser is shown as approximately N03.2/W030.9, which is the equivalent of the more conventional N03
°12
·3'/W030
°54
·1' shown on the latest chart. Hope this may help someone.
I'm also a bit confused about the significance of the large green rectangle in the middle of the Nav Wng Area.
It seems that the search is starting in the North
– which happens to be nearer the area where the wreckage was found
– and, if that produces nothing, will work its way to more promising areas further south and east?
