poser indeed

6nm up and a ground distance of 12nm? That's a cone with a half-angle of 63 degrees at the apex. Or to put it another way 12nm out in 4800nm travelled is 0.25%.

I thought Resolute Bay was in Nunavut and only a dirt strip.

I seem to recall that Boeing positions change calculation mode at about 84deg North depending on model.

Continental do this run, that you?
