FFF,


Flying into an area of minimal (or no!) defining features it's usual to fly to a point where a good fix can be gained then proceed by DR from there.

There are times in remote areas where the most optimal place to obtain a fresh fix is at, or in the vicinity of, the last fix.

Even if the wind is 20kts, after 30 mins the most you can be away is 10nm.
