Well me trip to welles purne was spot on and i did plan it the way i was taught... Waypoints and resetting timer etc... On the way back i used the gps more so than my plan but i was checking that i was in the same place that my gps told me i was.... And it was spot on all the way.
If it failed i had my paper planned route but boy was it a long winded pain in the a*s way round it ( he says now he sees how easy sat nav is)
With the instruments we have and detailed maps and the odd "practice pan" im sure we could find our way out of trouble
if i missed out the long winded paper planning
I just feel like im cheating on the way i was taught
