Algol i don't know all the details of the report but it seems that only the Longitude was incorrectly entered. If I remember correctly from ATPL studies an INS platform will happily accept any Longitude entered as long as the Latitude is correct. Latitude is used to level the platform. So in this situation the INS will happily align itself and believe its position to be correct
