Thanks for the replies.... So if any Southerly heading was set, the plane would eventually reach the South Pole (Mag or Geo, dependant upon setting), flying a not particularly straight line.

Only if 180 degrees was set would the plane fly a great circle route, other times it would be the Rhumb Lines.... Thanks again...
