Hi All,
Does this work for correcting track error?
Angle to Destination
= fraction of journey (i.e. ½) turned around (i.e. 2/1)
multiplied by Track Angle Error
I.e. if half way and 6 degrees of track: 6 x 2 = 12 degrees (takes you to destination)
or if quarter of the way and 5 degrees of track, 5 x 4 = 20 degrees? (takes you to destination)
The latter doesn't seem correct but is what's written in a book I'm studying...
Help.
